I have a buddy that has a pair of '09 stock air shocks, that he is not going to be using. How much are they worth ? He isn't a computer guy, but I could handle it for him to help you out, if you would like. Are they rated for more weight ?

yes you are correct that the 09's are not the same # as the 08 and earlier models...
With that said the 08's and earlier WILL bolt right up on the bike...I know this for a fact...
FFT...The earlier version's might even be a better shock as far as ride...The 09 streetglide shocks on my 09 were harsh and no matter how much air I put in them they were firm and harsh...Even the 13" shocks that came off a 09 Roadglide were harsh reguardless of how much air I ran...
So even though the numbers are different doesn't mean the product is any better then the originals...FFT

As far as ride, my 09 stock FLTR rides very well, I just want to see it a little shorter in the back.

I am not here to enlighten you, educate you or argue with you in any way shape or form. I am a therapist, not a parts man or a wrench. I am just looking for a used set of 09 FLHX shocks, that is all.
