I tried pinning a post awhile back and its not here but DON'T GET THE ADJUSTABLE CAMBER ARMS THEY KEEP GIVING POSITIVE CAMBER FOR ME AND EVERYONE ELSE, I ENDED UP NOT GETTING THEM AND MY ALINMENT WAS FINE WITHOUT THEM.
Excuse me, but each one with his own.
It bothers me that people who want to help other people, so that life is more pleasant by demonstrating what they do to save money with these videos, a person comes who does not make any kind of auto mechanic videos and those not know nothing about it, dares to comment on things out of place.
You dedicate yourself to musical instruments and music and let others show their skills without criticizing.
We are going to see the videos of what skills you have in addition to the instruments and the music.
Texas Honda Channel, I congratulate you for showing videos of how to make modifications to the Honda Pilot. Keep doing them.
The People who have these cars we thank you.
Ignore critics who do not contribute anything to help others.
Always killing it. The pilot mean now.
For sure man! Gotta get that light bar on now.
Hey! That Pilot is getting meaner by the day! Gonna watch the rest of the vid 😉
Indeed and it drives so good now!!
That think is looking better and better!
Thanks and i strongly agree!
End of the video is most important I’m glad I watch to the end! And you said :God bless! Thanks for that! God bless to you too and your family ! This car better and better! 👍 good job
i just got a 2003 Honda Pilot for light offroad work. Looks like I'm subscribing to you.
Looks nice!! I have a 2007 honda pilot ex-l 4wd same motor you have in yours. I'm wanting to do a lift as well glad you made a video and put the links in the description. Awesome ride man.
The 03-04 motors are different, as are the 2005, and the 2006-2008. They are all Honda J-series in all Pilots, but there are differences.
Looks sweet, good little kiddo too.
Love your videos! Just did mine with the same kit. All went well except I accidentally forgot to remove time two 10mm bolts for the abs sensor on the left rear and broke the wire. 🤦♂️
Nice job I have one 2005 I want to lift thank you
The Pilot looks mean with the offroad look!
Very good tutorial!
I love the way how it looks Great I have honda pilot 2007 I would like to do like yours what kínd of rigs and the size the y are and also the tires the size
Sweet set up... just a few things where did you get the front grill from as well the roof rack please and thank you... if you can send link that’s would be amazing....
Love Your videos 📹👍🏿👀.. #Outstanding
We definitely need a build on Casey's civic. It's long over due boy's lol.
Yea just been waiting on him to get the funds in order.
@@TexasHondaChannel I hear ya brother I have 2 05 civics setting idle atm due to winter here in Canada plus cash flow and of course I went and picked up a 04 eclipse so I'm torn on which to build first now lol.
@@Fredfjs78 what motor you got in the eclipse
@@spankthemonkey3437 sorry for the late reply it's the 2.4
@@Fredfjs78 non turbo right
Sick bass!
Nice video. I to have the same year Honda Pilot
Awesome well more stuff “performance” mods soon
Hey man!! Super inspiring build you got happening here. I have an 05 Pilot and will be installing the 2.5" front 2" rear lift kit once my rims come in so I can put the bigger tires on it right away. I am so happy to see that 245/75's are doable with 0 offset plus spacers with very minimal cutting. I was having a hell of a time finding any info on that because my wheels will be -5 offset (praying i don't need spacers to clear the caliper haha). I'm torn between going to 245/70's or 245/75's but I'm wondering if you think the 245's would fit without cutting with the 2.5" lift installed?
2 more quick questions for you, did you notice a significant decrease in fuel milage and power after installing the kit and 75's? And what size spacers did you put on there to clear the calipers?
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Lol watch out your daughter is about to steal your channel 🤣.. im happy to see this progressing.. keep it up james!! 🤙
now we def need a pick of my lifted crv and the pilot but lets wait till i can get the crv painted and raptor lined
Right!
Very NICE. Where did you get the lift kits from?
Will removing the Cadillac converter will it meet the truck sound different? As in a Good Different? I also have a lifted Honda Pilot.. Thanks Again.. And Plz "KEEP UP THE OUTSTANDING WORK" it really helps.. #Facts #YouRock
I love it guy's👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Good looking pilot. How does all those mods affect the gas mileage?
Size and offset of your wheels? That is a sick stance even without the lift.
Greetings friend, I just watched your video and I found it very interesting, I have a 2005 Pilot and I want to do the same, but I don't know where to buy the spacers and everything else that you used to lift your pilot, I live in Florida and I would like you to Will you help to lift my slingshot? Thanks and good luck man.
I have a J35 in my SUV with a 2wd H5 autotragic and I need a replacement intermediate shaft, would the same ones you mentioned fit mine?
Did you have to loosen the axle nut to get the strut back in with the lift spacer on. I keep trying but axle pops out of it’s joint. Struggling
Thanks buddy boy! Do you think it's worth lifting a front wheel drive? God Bless you and Texas!
Were you able to properly align the rear camber? I installed the lift with the rear camber arms and the rear arms are too long at their shortest setting they’re about 1/4” longer than the OEM arms and I end up with too much positive camber.
Great video. Thanks for sharing.How many miles on your rig? I’m at a 194k
Was wondering do you know if it’s necessary to buy the rear chamber arms ? Or can you use the oem
Any good lift kits for my 2012 pilot .also where can I get some good led light bars
Btw, I subbed!
Did the rear camber arms work out. Mine seem to be too long? Any suggestions
What size are your rims and tires and do you have a spacers installed?
Do you have a link to the camber bolts you used?
You made this look easy not mentioning needing a spring compressor or 2 people. Bent a prybar trying to get this to go together and damage to the axle boot is possible. The front end is an absolute nightmare to put together. I don't recommend anyone do this alone unless you're experienced with these issues.
I’m having trouble with my front struts seems like I need to use spring compressor? Can you put them on with the strut up on the vehicle?
he used the jack instead of a spring compressor
Did you use the stock shocks on the rear?
Buenos días desde cd Juárez, me podrías ayudar diciéndome la medida de la llanta y el rin de que tiene la honda pilot, se lo agradecería mucho.
Hey, what size tired and rims do you have?
What's up man? Hey I just installed those lift kit, now my abs and traction control lights are on. What did I do wrong?
What kind of rims you have?
I have an 07 pilot. I noticed it's using 22mm bolts on the front.
Did you have a before and after overall height? I hear you don't get a full 2.5 lift..
What size are you tires and rim. Is there an offset?
A little turbo on a k24 in a lifted all wheel drive civic would be cool. You might could do some rally racing events. I wouldn't push an AWD civic much more than 300hp because they seem to break all the time. Plus I wouldn't do any courses that had big jumps. what ever you do good luck with it👍
Yea I’m not really into all that K life like everyone else. My setup currently can do 300whp if I turn the boost up or even more than 300whp safe with my fully built D series I built awhile back.. I’m just not wanting to or have a reason to do that. The civic as it is right now is great but could be better once I get a couple more psi but the clutch isn’t holding what power it’s making now so that’s next on the list.
@@TexasHondaChannel yea I wouldn't modify that civic into a rally car it's a classic anyway.
Damn i knew I should have gotten shorter tie rods for my lift. Mine hit the control arm when wheel droop occurs.
Is it fwd or awd ?
Any axel vibrations with that duralast gold axel. How is it handeling the lift.
It handles amazing and no vibration
Hey James, I just installed the same 2.5 inch freedom offroad lift for my 2005 pilot. I'm planning on getting a 16x8 setup as well and was curious if you would recommend the 245/75/16 you currently have or a 255/70/16 as I originally intended? If I went 245/75 with the lift considered, do you think I would still need to cut part of the front bumper because of the taller tires? I'd appreciate any input, thanks!
What size tire you end up using
I'm thing of using goodyear duratrac 245 75r16 on my stock rim
Was there any wobbles on accelerating from the axles? Idk if I should buy the subframe drop kit or not as well
I did a 2" lift on mine and put 245/70/16 tires with stock rims, and I have vibrations. I also did a subframe drop and still have the same vibration accelerating at low speed after 25 mph it goes away. I am gonna change the CV Axle next and see if that fixes the problem. If not, I will remove everything and put it back to stock. Wasted time and money.
So you just lifted the front end only??
Did you have to trim your fenders to get the tires 245/75/16 to fit. I was going to put them on my stock rims
No that size tire fits my Pilot just fine on the stock wheels even without a lift
Does anyone have a lead on a lift that doesn't use spacers? They're illegal in PA although not technically stated. I asked the guy while it was getting inspected and he said they don't allow anything that puts space between a suspension component and it's mounting point and that I should just get bigger springs/shocks if I want a lift.
I know it’s been five months but if you haven’t found anything go and look up Flat Out Suspension, they have adjustable coils that can achieve up to three inches of lift. Also have financing if the price makes you wanna 🤮
Just did my 2008! What size rims and tires are you running
245/75/R16 rims are 16x8 lug pattern 5x4.5
You said in eBay but there tones of them
Was there any vibrations ? Any need for a subframe drop like on the RD1 CRV ?

How did it go
Before I work on a car, especially the suspension components, I pressure wash or go through spray wash. Man, it makes the job way more pleasant and clean.
Do you need the adjustable camber bolts?
The kit I got off ebay actually came with them
What kind of rims and tires are those?
I left the info for that in a different video.
Sorry but maybe I’m not the handiest with UA-cam or something but I’m looking for the link to this lift kit cus I want to do the same to my Pilot now.
The links are in the description of the video.
Your wife is probably like no please stop jk 🤣
Nah she actually is loving it! haha
@@TexasHondaChannel she must be a truck type woman. Your lucky 🤣
@@spankthemonkey3437 nah she just loves what I did to it and it’s a Honda Pilot it’s classified as a truck on our registration anyways. We have 6 people my 4 children and my wife and I so we need the room and beats a mini van
@@TexasHondaChannel minivans can be made fast 🤔 well Honda's can🤣
They can but they aren't for me. I had a honda van liked it but i love the pilot lol
u think this would work on a 03 odyssey?
WHY would you want to live an odyssey?! Other than to be different?
@@W0RLDSSMALLESTVI0LIN for more clearance when I travel. and thats the car I already have
Every man's house is his castle and every man's car is his chariot.
Hey is the Honda Pilot painted in raptor?
Also what year is the Honda Pilot?
This one will be raptor lined white but right now it’s rustoleum truck bed coated black then I scuffed it 2yrs later and did white rustoleum white over it. I will be raptor lining it soon as I can. It’s a 2003
Pilot looks amazing lift you have cute little girl
Thanks 🙏🏻
I have a 2003 Honda Pilot with 139,500 og miles and really thinking of decking it out like yours
I’m a Chevy guy to be honest v8 engines, but that Honda is calling me 😂 it’s just been sitting for 2 years just waiting for me to do something with it ?
$1.99 a gallon? it's almost 5 dollars a gallon in Calif.
i have 06 pilot awd, and transmission almost die on me , so be careful on the supercharger , honda transmission are not very strong, specially with the v6 motor higher mileage
Yes! I have pilot 2003 rebuild transmission on 180k miles, Drive another 50,000 miles.. I think overheated and its die again.. so my question is: maybe somebody can tell what we can do with this kind of transmissions?,to make them stronger! Send some links or videos please! And yours HONDA looks great will do the same thing on mine soon
@@pavelfedorchenko1971 the 03-04 Pilots have weak transmissions...in 05 they beefed it up and those are better. In 06 honda redesigned the trans and the 06-08 trans are excellent.
just did a 2 inch lift on my pilot. did anyone else get a vibration when accelerating after installing the kit?
I did the 2 1/2 inch on my 04 and I get a vibration but only at constant speeds at 50mph+
Did u guys lift the front only or both the front and back? I’m not sure if I should do both or just the front.
Mine has a three inch lift and it does have a vibration when accelerating, but smooths out after that.
That could be alignment, unbalanced tires, even brake disc.
@cyberedge881 Did you fix the problem? I did a 2" lift on mine and put 245/70/16 tires with stock rims, and I have vibrations. I also did a subframe drop and still have the same vibration accelerating at low speed after 25 mph it goes away. I am gonna change the CV Axle next and see if that fixes the problem. If not, I will remove everything and put it back to stock. Wasted time and money.
What size tires can I fit on my Honda pilot with a 2 inch lift?
Just wanted to ask you if do you have 2” front and rear on your Honda Pilot and did you had to use any subframe washers on your 2” lift kit at all?
@@johnnybaca7949 mechanics said that I'm messing up my cv axles because of my 2 inch lift
Now you have to start parking next to regular pilots so you can show them how much better you are than them lol
Haha 😂
Anyone else install this and it pulled your cv axle out of the trans while driving or was it just me?
You completely left out you removing the 10mm bolts for the abs sensor. 🥴🥴
Which I forgot to.... and now my 4wd is out because I accidentally pulled my wire out when I dropped the rear driver side spring.... now I'm paying 55 bucks for a new one
@@lettuceshred9107 sucks for people that used your video 🤷🏽♂️😂
I know this is a year+ old video. Found it because I'm contemplating getting a Pilot and want to install a lift kit. Excellent overview of the process. BUT DAMN - that musical interlude is HORRIBLE!!! Hope you've removed it in future videos!
Man gas was 1.99 😢
Shit dude,, Make the music volume match you vocal volume!!!!!!!!! TOO much bass music!!!!! Neighbors are not loving me now!
Who misses Trump and that half priced gas?
No one
What size tires you running with the lift ?
245/75/R16
So I’m thinking of doing this to my pilot. Still recommend it? And anything else to know ?
Sorry i pinned the comment for the only thing to make note of really.
@@TexasHondaChannel what size tires are you running now
