Im jealous of how rust free that CRV is
Me too 😭
i appreciate you uploading this video i am so excited to install this on my future CRV can't wait till we see more updates on other videos you do. thank you very much happy new year. :)
Good to the last burp!! Awesome as always Ben and crew! I am liking the new diff drop pucks for the 2cnd gen V👍
It always happens lol
Awesome video! I recently just purchased an 04 CRV. I will ordering a lift soon.
Thanks for the big help I got 02 CRV I’m going to do it too.
Excellent video , very informative. I spaced the handbrake cables from the body aswell tho.
Lol watching that brake line stretching while you fought strut to go back in
Awesome work!!!!! Thank you..... Now i can buy the kit😊😊
Thanks ben love these videos
Need a video install on the 6" kit. I have the 3" and maybe considering getting the 6" but wanted to see the differences/installation first😬
Nice video. Wish we could have seen a before and after shot.
I’m going to be buying one of these kits soon thanks for the installation video
Man very nice video . Thank you
Was waiting to for this video to "train" my crew. 🙈
My driveshaft loop is exactly the same way. Bent in the same spot exactly. I think it’s to keep front from hitting the body, the rear is a true safety loop
Same, it always seemed weird to me.
I’m having trouble aligning my subframe again, if I put one bolt in on one side, the other side is too far over for me to thread in the bolt
I want to get your 3" lift/subframe kit for my 2004 MDX so are they basically the same? Iff not will you be doing a video for the 1st gen MDX?
This is great.
Any plans for 3rd gen?
The camber bolt u put at the end, I’m confused as to what you do with that. I’m a noob when it comes to Honda’s and suspension
Does this kit work with the "S" vin numbers (UK built, right hand drive, 2 liter CRV's)? Also, how is it getting in and out of the vehicle? Do you need running boards?
The instructions say to use the m12x60 on the driver side for the transmission but your video says to use the 70. Which one is correct? Only asking since it’s your video and your kit but it’s contradicting each other.
I have a 2006 Honda Crv, what measures of wheels and tires does the truck support?
Hey bro! Greettings from Panamá could You tell me if I can Buy that spacers kit on internet? Thanks bro! Amazing video
Dear;
I would appreciate your help, I bought a 2.5" kit but it does not come with the green tubes, for a 2.5" kit what height should these green tubes have (would they be 2.5" too?) ... Regards
Is the follow up video still a thing?
Not seeing the lift kit for the gen two on your site :/
Is it necessary to change the tire into higher size as well?
Howd you get the spare tire to mount? Did you use a spacer?
What size wheels are on the crv and what offset?
What all did you have to replace after the lift?
That front driveshaft safety loop is in the correct spot, it does NOT loop through. I know because I've done a ton of research on this exact topic 🤣
could you explain ?
At 15:10 I'm more concern about the rubber brake line that's gonna snap when you pride down to make that strut fit in...LOL
Hi there HRG,
I can lift my cr-v , whit only strut spacer,
And need use spacer wheels.
My idea is install tire 225 /75/15
Thanks for answering.
How big of a tire can you fit on the tailgate?
One of the spacers near the power steering doesn't fit at all and will have to be ground down in order to fit correctly on my 2004 honda crv
Where are you located? Can you do this to my 2006 Honda CR-V? How much it cost? I’m in Long Island New York! I really like the way you work.
Sponsor me soni can do a video on how to lift an 03 ep3 si with your kits
Why does the subframe and motor mounts need spacers why not just the struts
Anyone have a link to buy this kit or similar please 🙏
donde puedo encontrar ese kit de bujes o de alsas
Is the kit compatible with 2.2 diesel?
What size is the spacer wheel??
How much would this cost with parts?
Hi what where the actual measurements of the spacers as I can't get it. Because they say the are 1.5inch rear but how does that make it a 3inch lift?? Many thanks
Gary
It's the geometry. The 1.5in spacers are inboard to the frame enough, that the resulting lift between tire and wheel well makes it 3 inches.
Ben for the drop kit Why put a larger hole spacer on the spikes just to accommodate the lip? Just mill the smaller spacer a bit wired on the bottom. The way you are doing it now puts way too much pressure on the bottom and its more prone to snap.
I understand what you are saying but that’s is not true based on our experience. The large hole spacer fits flush.There is no additional pressure and the wider hole has nothing to do with the tip. The bolts in fact do snap easily when people install the spacers incorrectly. I actually explain this in the video at 4:10. At one point we were drilling the smaller ones out but it added labor cost and people were still installing them wrong. It didn’t solve anything so we switched to a spacer that was already the correct size.. It’s worth mentioning there are guys that have had this kit correctly installed for 3 years and counting, trouble-free.
@@hrg_tv Just saw your comment. Yes, I saw that in the video but the way it is now you are putting all the stress on the lip. Which is preferable to the alternative, but it's still not the best way to do it. I don't know anything about the production I guess it makes sense to have a different item for this position to avoid people messing it up.. Just saying it can be better. Let's hope we all drive our cars trouble-free.
@@martinnedyalkov9185 Your statement implies that we have no idea what we are doing. You might be right about that, but we are always learning and improving our products. We noticed the failures you are worried about do actually happen but only when the spacers aren’t installed properly. So the real challenge is showing the proper way, which I feel like we have accomplished with this video.
halo.. how to get the lift kit?
I just recently bought this lift kit and barely put it on today. There seems to be vibration coming from the front when I accelerate any thoughts? One thing I didn't do is rotate the top of the spacer 180 degrees I don't think the instructions said to do that, why did you do that?
Juan you bought a 2 inch kit. This video is for the 3 inch
20:04 sound like someone dropped something and dropped the MF bomb lol
How much does it coast ?
I just bought the 3in lift kit (today) . It’s for my 99 crv 5speed, what is the biggest size tires can I fit ? And does the 3in lid kit comes with the trailing arm spacers?
how was it now
An excellent video with great explanations. However, is it really worth all the work? Especially if you don't have a garage to do it in.
Only you can answer that question and no one else.
Can u pls help me provide a complete list of spacers and the soecs of bolts to buy. And where to buy this complete sets
hrgoffroad.com sells everything you need
Part 2 video? 😬
What are the biggest tires that I can use with that lift? I have 15 x 8 rim's.
You could run 235’s
Do we need drop kit for subframe/engine/transmission when installing 2 inch spacer?
I currently ordered a 2” lift spacer for front and rear it should be fine without it but i would replace your sway bar links and ball joints
Theres gonna be a lot more tension on those parts so replacing them would be the best option
I installed the 3 inch lift on my 2004 Honda CRV and I'm looking for some steel black rims to slap my 235/75/15's on, but i'm having a hard time finding the right rims. Can someone make a recommendation. I already messed up one order and really want to get it right this time. Been asking around and still cant find an answer. Thanks!
they're called wheels. I can help you out, what are you having a hard time with ?
@@danielgardzina6982 thanks for the offer. I already figured it out. I didn't understand the lug pattern and how to read wheel measurements, but finally figured it out. I had to get old jeep wheels with the same lug pattern.
Reason why you put spacers...
Your video or instructions also fail to mention that without trimming the passenger side stud on the motor mount equipped with ABS, you cannot get the nut off.
I recommend the 1.5in lift. Theyll fit it upto 30 in tires no problem. No drop needed.
I have a minimum of 12" clearance on my 05 crv.
No axle issues ? Front and back 1.5?
@@EATSLEEPJD none. But you may need wheel spacers when going thick tires.
@@EATSLEEPJD but the boot will rip for sure if you're using old front axles. Rear will be fine
@@tomasashenafi882 ah gotchu. Just picked up a 2005 for my UA-cam. Researching about the lifts now.
@@tomasashenafi882 thank you.
Hello hrg fam I did a 3in strut spacer lift on my 2gen and now having trouble with alignment too much positive camber. I installed front camber bolts but only helped a little would the engine drop kit fix the problem
The engine drop kit only drops the engine 1/4”, it does not affect suspension geometry. Your best bet is to install a shorter spacer. A 3 inch spacer is too tall for these. 2.5 is pushing it and works best with a 1” subframe drop.
I order the engine drop and subframe drop it’s a 2wd hopefully works a little better
Why would u sell a 3in lift if it’s not going to work
@@hrg_tv curious also HRG, why sell a 3" kit if the positive camber will always be too much?
Next video please
Ben!!! I've got something I'd like to run by you about the Pilot lifts. Message me on here or the LHS group on FB.
Do another giveaway!
Please make a snorkel, too. crv2002
Do you have to drop the engine if you wanna do like a 1.5 or a 2 inch lift?
No
Where's the 99 Hondas crvs?
how has this effected drive feel, transmission shifts, and mileage
The mileage is not effected by the lift, but by installing larger, heavier tires, roof baskets, and heavy off-road gear. The lift does cause poor on-road handling. The engine and transmission will seem sluggish after installing larger, heavier tires. If your main concerns are mileage and handling you may want to consider leaving your vehicle stock.
Im about to install your 1.5" lift and leveling kit. Would you say the poor handling applies to this smaller lift as well?
@@hrg_tvI just wanted lifted a bit with big tires. No off road gear or roof basket nothing. Should I b fine?
Just bought a 06 cr-v with 87,000 looking to have something like this done to it!
Do I need a subframe drop in the gen 2 crv if I’m only doing a 1.5-2inch lift? Not a full 3?
you can just click on his website and look..
How long does it take to do this install?
Easy to do with a lift, ty
Honda engineers are sweating now
I love farting out of my mouth too, ahhhhhhh yeah!🤪 question, how much stress is this lift putting on the cv joints or is the lift not putting them that much of a bind? Burrrrrrrrrrp, ahhhhhhh yeah! Thumbs up on this video buddy, take care. 👍
Ain't nothing "basically" bout this..lol. Looks nice though.
All that work for an inch
Not a CR-V
Just messaged you on Instagram! Would love to show off your stuff!
should you always use a taller spacer on the front than the rear?
IT DEPENDS ON THE DESIRED STANCE. IF YOU PREFER THE REAR TO SIT 2 OR MORE INCHES HIGHER THAN THE FRONT, YOU WOULD USE THE SAME SIZE SPACERS FRONT AND REAR.
@@hrg_tv thanks for the info
