OK I got the chrome lowers and the cans from Ebay. What else do I need parts wise to do the job. Axle, shims???? Can one of you guys that have done it help guy out? I didnt buy the KIT from Harley. The lowers and cans I got are chromed aftermarket.

 

Chrome Front End Kit - Touring Models

The front forks on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle set the tone for the bike, and can lead the way to a full-bore custom statement. So start customizing by adding chrome where it will have the most noticeable impact on the overall look of the bike, your front end. This package includes components necessary to completely chrome the front forks and includes some or all of the following (kit components vary depending on your model): Chrome Fork Sliders, Chrome Fork Axle Retainer Nut Kit, Chrome Fork Slider Drain Screw Kit, Chrome Front Wheel Spacers, Classic Chrome Front Axle Nut Cover Kit, and Chrome Upper Fork Nut Covers.


Looks like drain screws axel nut covers and wheel spacers is all you need.

 

And oil

 

Know of one more thing your kit came with ya didnt mention......a big stinkin smile.

 

So its just my stock axle with caps.
Ripper43, I am looking to do the 21/18 with an inch lower like yours. Going to try and do the front end myself

 

New seals

 

a 6mm allen key for the head bolt in the bottom of the forks. or an impact gun ,had to cut mine cause of a strip bolt

 

Yes stock axel with caps.

 

That's right

 

Chrome spacers are nice but not needed, as are drain screws. Use SE Heavy fork oil, you'll be glad you did.
