Default Rear lowering kit for 2010 Ultra with ohlins shocks

Hello Everyone. I have yet to fing a lowering kit that specifically fits my 2010.

It seems that the 09's & 10's are different from the 08's and below.

I have tried the LA Choppers kit, the Ness kit and a cheap kit found on ebay.

None of them would even fit with the stock shocks, let alone the ohlins, which are inverted. (The collar hits the adapters).

Both the Ness and the LA Choppes kit said "for 09's and 10's" They both listed a different kit for the 08"s and below.

I had already installed a progressive drop in lowering kit for the front, went to the back and can't lower it!!. I may have to remove the front kit. I'd rather not. Any Ideas?

OK... the first one looks exactly like the LA choppers one, and the next 2 are the same. Tried all of those to no avail. It's like the shock mount on the adapter needs to be spaced out about 1/2 inch, so the ohlins can clear, or that the stock shocks boots don't hit.

Seems like the key to this whole thing is the ohlins.
What does the ol codger at motorcycle metal say about using a lowering kit with his shocks?
