Default Fatboy front wheel on a Standard?

2006 Softail Standard. Anyone put a fatboy wheel on the front? I have one laying around and am wondering what it would take to put it on. Will it drop the front end too much? I know I'll need to change the fender, but what about spacers, and will the disc line up? If it more or less bolts up, will I need to lower the rear? Fatboy wheel is from a 2003. Thanks for any input.

I went the other way. I put a softail custom wheel on my Fatboy. It raised the front maybe 1/2".

Did it just bolt up, or were there other issues?
