Have any of you all taken off the rear shocks and replaced them with struts to make the softail hard for any reason. I'm looking to do this so i can drop my frame rails to 4 inches and build a bad *** springer front end but I'm having a little creative block ... some pictures would be great thanks guys

 

Here ya go! Just click images once you make the jump.

 

i had looked around on the web but they are almost all very generic. I was hoping that someone had a little more custom look for them.

 

are you serious? nah no ones done that before. this has to be a joke....

 

check out dk customs they sell them and they are a lil more beefy than most struts ive seen

 

If you're building a springer you can build one of these.

 

Yea MReed i would love to do a full hard tail but I"m trying to save a little money where i can because in the end i wanna build a full frame (Paugheo style broadtrack) with a leafer style front end

 

I'll take two please!

 

Here's a video of a bunch of different bikes with struts...might give you some ideas.
