dOOD,
   Thanks for the input, does JP or another retailer have a better price on them?  I'm out looking for speakers right now.  I'm tinking Polk Audio.  Any thoughts??  I do have the Hawg Wired amp (Just the fronts) but the right speaker is blown (I really never liked them to begin with).

My "indy" got mine (and installed) for me and he's a Drag dealer/distributor so more than likely they came from there. As far as the stereo stuff you got me I'm still using HogTunes Speakers w/stock stereo. :(

Gary, Thanks for the input.  I do think I'll do the PS front end, and try the Polk audio for sound at this point, I haven't heard anything with more positive feedback yet.  What is the stock height for our bikes?  Is it the 11.5 (Lowered) or a bit higher??  I know that 13" is standard, just don't know where I'm at.

Good luck don't think you'll be sorry with the results. :2vrolijk_21: If memory serves me right as you mentioned stock height is 13" and 1" lowered (as ours are) would be 12". I also did the Progressive Ultra 940 Shocks and by their description...

The Ultra Touring shocks utilize all the suspension travel provided by these 13" eye to eye units, but provide a 1" lowered ride height.

would further confirm that. My bike sits as it did stock but rides 100X better now!!!

This is where I've gotten all my Progressive shocks from, JC Motors.

They also have the Monotubes for $252.27.

If you go by the part # from that add (JC Motors Part# 31-2500) and match those up with the P/N #'s from Progressive those are the stock height not the lowered (31-2501) that he needs.

Hello,
Just wanted to give you all a heads up.
I have used this seller before with very good results.
Prices are good, will even price match sometimes.
Not sayin you should run out and buy from them, just letting you all know how my experience was.
I will prob. buy from them again.

Her is the price for the lowered ones! Seems Progressive charges $50 more for the lowered ones.

Steve I purchased from these guys.

I went with stock height but they do have the 1" lower that the SEEG's were built with.
