front coil overs for a 700 lb front end with leading link. help question
I ran into this problem when I built my front end. I have metric forks with a Harley V-Rod front wheel. Harley (at least in 2003 for my wheel) is SAE. They use a 1" dia. axle that is really 25[B].4 [/B]mm. They also use (bless their hearts) Harley specific bearings (read non-standard, Harley Only). Can't just swap out the bearings. I ended up building a sleeve with a 1" OD and an ID to match the axle for the forks.
I would think going with an SAE thread that has appropriate thread depth in this application would work. Unless, of course, you want the build to be all metric.
