True Track??

Be aware that shipping costs out of the USA are high, also that you will have Oz import duties and taxes to pay, when your treasured parcel reaches your shores. If you have never done this before, check on your Government websites for details of likely importing costs.

The rear of both brands are equally difficult for sure. I can't see anyone doing the rear without help, I tried for 90 minutes and got nowhere, I needed another hand to spin the wrench, wobble extension and socket while I worked on the other side to align the mount.
Singlehandedly the rear job is a 10 to infinity in difficulty, with help it's about a 2 or 3, but that's just for one bolt, the rest is easy.

True-Track???
I was interested to read this thread as I personally opted for the Sputhe Stabilizer in lieu of the True-Track mainly because I have an HD MoCo Oil Cooler and several threads indicated the Sputhe (which does the same for stiffness or lateral rigidity) was easier to deal with when an Oil Cooler was installed.
Well, I will say the front end install was easy with the Sputhe and the rear Stabilizer was not a PIA but it definitely goes in easier with a second set of hands. My wife is a real gem and provided the extra assistance for a rather painless install. I would certainly recommend Sputhe for the quality and very solid construction and I had no problem getting communications from the Sputhe shop. I would not, however, go with the front only.
Having the Sputhe Stabilizer on my 2009 FXDC has definitely enhanced both straight and twisties travel. Some folks consider the feel as like riding a rail.....well you take it for what its worth but the feel of stiffness in the chassis does make one feel like the responsive handling emulates riding a rail!!!!
Which ever way you go....don't be discouraged by a slow response from either manufacturer. I have had great communications from both and I feel patience paid off.
Happy Sputhe user....I'm sure True-Track is just as worth it in every way.

I have the sputhe on my 01 fxdl and can only say great things about it ..put it on by myself about three yrs ago .??? .been to ride the dragon and surrounding areas several times ...makes a difference ..either model you get would be easier if the bike was on a jack ..would really be easier if rear wheel was removed ...
