Front Suspension Rebuild

For those of you that have rebuilt your front suspension. Where did you get the best prices for bushings, sliders, and seals. I'm going with the 416 Progressive Springs and the best price i can find is $83.xx
Also, Progressive offers a few different shocks for the rear suspension what do you like the best and why?
Thanks

They do not stock a lot of parts, but most are ordered from Honda then shipped to you when they get them. Took about 10 days during the Thanksgiving holiday on mine.

I've rebuilt several front forks on Valks and VTXs. Used both OEM and K&L seals. Can't tell the difference. Two K&L oil seals are $20 but don't include the dust seal. It's not always necessary to replace the dust seal. OEMs are ~$20 each side but include the dust seal. Just an FYI for cost savings.

Look at pricing at DLP and see if you local dealer will price match (most will)... and it will most likely get there quicker for ya.
