This was great! In depth and definitely dig the details of not just how to do it but why the it goes the way it goes. Just my two cents though. Good stuff!
@@davidwilley4524 no sir the Fox springs were 100% good to go, it absolutely was NOT different lengths. The shop I worked with couldn’t have done a worse job. Took them 3 days to remove and replace my front suspension. I had a scheduled appointment, my bike hit there lift 10 minutes after I pulled up. I know this shop on a personal basis. 3 days to install forks(I had to assist….a lot), 20 minutes into the service my ST front fender was dropped and the paint was destroyed, and that was right after I gave the guys in the shop some local catfish to fry. I always try to butter up the tech that is working on my bike. Got to make it feel more personal to ensure a good service, but it doesn’t seem to work. I’ve had $2,000 worth of free services in 2024 due to shops causing damages. Local Harley dealer damaged my rear wheel installing a new tire. How does that chopped front fender on the ST get dropped, I can hold it with 1 finger, & it was the first step for this service. (Remove front fender, set aside & reinstall once service is completed). Even still, I was very nice about the whole thing, and recommended that I pay full price for the service. Which I did, then I basically had to beg them to fix the paint on the fender. This shop is for the white collars of the motorcycle community, haven’t left a review about my experience, wanted to see if they would make up for anything. Let’s just say I used to go in the owners office just to chat, now I don’t step foot near that place.
Brake dive is significantly improved. The feel is more form than stock, especially for the first 1000 miles or so. They are much more consistent than the stock set up, and have substantially better road feel than stock.
Great video! That is the best tear down and rebuild video of forks on a Road Glide that I have seen. Thanks for the in depth explanation. Well done.
I really want to watch you put the cap back on the leg that had the spring in it.Was it fairly easy?

Where can I get that tool. The fork seal one you made. Getting ready to drop these in my Road King.
Jeff Helm we made it ourselves. I can make one for you if you would like. Cost is $50
@@drewcox2422 thanks for the reply, I picked one up for $40.
Did you have to cut the preload spacer or does it come precut to length?
Not sure if you found that out. I’m in the middle of an install now and the left spring is 11mm too long? Something isn’t making sense
@@Hotdogz234-k8p One spring is longer than the other?

Have 2006 rear shock absorbers for Harley Davidson never used how much do they cost
Does your 460 run on race gas or what gas
Is there any advantage to using the stock cap on the side without cartridge? Is it a shorter than the cap fox provides or something?
So was the ride firm but not to firm?How was brake dive?

We have not had any squeaking out of any of our installs
