I just installed a lowering kit on a friends sportster and had not taken the belt gaurd into consideration. The rear tab jogs over and will no longer fit where it should. It looks like I can go with a longer bolt and a very thin nut if I straighten out the tab on the gaurd. It will probably screw up the paint when I do that so I'm looking for suggestions for those of you who have installed the rear brackets that lower and shift the rear shocks back for lowering.
