Educate me, why couldn't I use the same lowers, caliper, wheel, axle, etc? I get the new front fender but why couldn't I just swap out these tripples with the stock ones? This is something I am considering doing and would rather know what I'm getting into before hand. I just don't know why I can't slide my forks out of the stock tripples and then slide everthing back into the new black fatbob ones and just get a new fender and spacers for the wheel?

100% correct, 49 mm. Also you need to believe I do know what I am talking about on the conversion to Fat Bob trees P/N 55977-09. Mark my words, without spending lots of cash to make this project work you will have a bunch of parts in the closet. If you do get it to work, the calipers suck. You will need to source new ones which may include making adapters for decent ones. HD Brembos will not work properly as a few members posted their hack here. The sad part was that they did not even know why it was a horrible application.
