Shocks for trike

I agree with Bob. I changed out my stock shocks for the Proaction 14” shocks tested by DK Customs. The ride change was from night to day. Much smoother with the new shocks and DK is awesome to work with.
 
need some help with shocks.

looking to put on shocks on my 2017 tri glide ultra was the looking to see what it would take time wise and tools it looks like there`s not much clearance between frame and muffler for lift kit how did some one solved this problem:(

As previously posted give DK custom a call. I installed the 14 inch shocks with the comfort lift kit. Didn't take long at all and makes a big difference in the ride. My lady went from complaining about her back hurting when we finished a ride to turn up the music and keep going.

I installed the 14" Shock/Comfort Lift Combo on my 2017 last weekend. Took me about 2 hrs, however I took time to chase all threads to remove old loctite and clean everything prior to installing new equipment. DK Customs has videos on youtube showing installation, take the time to watch to familiarize yourself.

The exhaust weld on the 2017 prevented me from doing the Full Lift however the Secondary Lift worked perfectly.

You'll need 3/4" wrench for shock bolts, 9/16" wrench for lift brackets, and 5/16" allen wrench for parking brake bracket bolts. Watch the videos and they walk you through the installation.

Hint - Before you install the kit shine your headlight on a wall and note the height. You will need to adjust the headlight after the shocks/lift is installed.
