Status: offline 		08 shocks and springs actually lowered the bike TOO much causing negative camber. The spring are junk. Way to low of a spring rate. If you need some lift we got lots of 06 and 07 springs that are way stiffer than your stock ones. Or go with the HL springs.

Look into a coilover strut setup. If you are looking for more than just a "LIFT".

Status: offline 		BF has a coil on shock setup. strut and coilover setups are available for the BF for trailriding. A strut will have a longer natural throw than a BF shock. Couple of guys have the adj. setups on their bikes on here. If you don't have the means to fab front mounts(which you will have too) just get Highlifter springs and a longer shock. Good luck.
