This video is brought to you by: www.lowbrowcustoms.com
In this video you will learn how to install a Siouxicide Choppers 39mm Springer Front end for Harley-Davidson Sportsters. This springer is a great and easy solution for the garage builder who wants the look of a traditional springer on their Sportster without all the hassle of having changing out a lot of the stock parts, such as risers, handlebars, brake caliper, and gas tank when running a traditional style springer. Todd walks you through step by step on how to disassemble your front end and install this Siouxicide Chopper springer. So follow along as he gives you helpful tips and tricks to get you back on the road styling. Let's Go!
**EDITOR NOTE** The top bracket that holds the rear legs under the top triple tree and allows for the new headlight to be mounted was accidentally installed upside down in this tutorial. Please look at directions that comes with the kit and install the top bracket the correct way for proper installation. This will also allow for better handling. We are only human and do make mistakes. Sorry for the inconvenience.***

What a beautiful design and simplicity 💥💥💥💥💥💥

    48's have a mid glide 39mm, unfortunately, you wont be able to run it, its for narrow glides. if you found your self a set of narrow 39mm and changed them out it could work but the stock trees on the 48 are too wide.

    I found it easier to use the ratchet strap; and have the wheel on the axle using the weight of the bike to help, to compress the springs far enough to switch over to using a LARGE C-Clamp to finish compressing the springs. I had 3 different straps that the ratchet failed every time before compressing the springs far enough to start the nuts. As for how much tension is on those springs; when the strap ratchets failed, my front wheel wound up at least a foot off of the ground.

    Looks to me like it's a bit longer than stock? If the sums were done properly, then the increase in trail from the over length "springer" would balance out the decrease from the springer geometry. But I didn't design it, so that's just a guess.
