Raked Trees Question

[ncbandit]

Hello all, I have a Frankenstein kit on the way with 4 degree raked trees. Per HD, my stock trail is approximately 5.5 inches. The rakes trees are supposed to bring the trail between 3 & 4 inches. Obviously without lengthening the forks the front end will be lower. Do the rear end kits compensate for this or is the drop minimal enough where you don't notice it?

You want the spacers !!!
Why not order a tree from ZOOK the site owner. I know his trees of 4-5 degrees do come with 1.5" spacers but specifically ask for them.

Thanks for the reply. Since my initial post I have discovered the issue is resolved with fork extenders as you noted.

Frankenstein came with spacers?

I thought spacers would be required but after talking with Frankenstein they explained they were not needed. With the kit installed it seems as level as stock. I believe since the rear wheels are 15 " rims it compensates for the extra rake.
