Brake Rotor Dragging after installing Chrome fork Sliders?
I recently put on a set of chrome lower legs on my 03 Ultra. Now I am getting alot more brake drag on the rotors. Tried taking a few thou of the top of the caliper (top bolt mount) still doing it. Any one else ever had this happen?

I can't really diagnose the problem from a distance, but would offer a few suggestions.
First off, the left and right axle spacers on your '03 are different widths. Make sure you have the correct one on the correct side.
If they are correct, I would loosen the axle retaining bolts on the right leg and loosen the main axle bolt slightly. check for dragging, then re-tighten as per the factory manual.
Also, check that your rotors didn't get bent at all. I had a rotor get bent when I was doing the brakes one time. The wheel fell onto it's side, onto the rotor, and bent the rotor just enough to make a mess of things.
Don't know if this is any help, but no one else has stepped up yet.
