Slip Fit neck kit MISFIT Industries’ Slip Fit neck kit has been created to allow riders to run 30in front wheels on Touring models. The kit once installed results in just 1.5in of lift and due to the short neck design it offers 3in of clearance. The kit can also be used with a 26in front wheel install. However, if a 26in wheel is used Misfit recommend installing a front air ride kit because of
the additional 3in of suspension clearance. MISFIT INDUSTRIES 1600 Capital Ave, Suite 150, Plano, TX 75074 Tel: 877.647.3489 chris@misfitindustries.net www.misfitindustries.net
