so i bought the 2.5 lift and the rear bolts were incorrect.. now i spent three hours on the arched a arm kit with a improper fit... come to find out the upper a arms were mis labelled on the item list.... so in other words the left upper a arm is the right upper a arm and vice versa... lots of cursing but finally fixed the issue.... get it together Highlifter

I had no problems with the 2.5 Brackets. Do you have pictures of your rig with everything installed

I just installed a high lifter lift kit on my 1000 and had to cut all 4 spacers that go where shocks used to be off about a 1/2 inch .

i was one of the first one shipped on the 2.5... and was the first to get the arched a arm... the rear bolts for the 2.5 were to short and had to go to the hardware store to buy longer ones... my dealership called me that day and told me highlifter had called and said they made a mistake... contacted honda today to let them know that the arms were labelled incorrectly ... i will have pics later today.... mounting my tire now

I had to do the same thing when I put my lift on. spacer 4Y to be exact. I emailed highlifter and said they would look into it.

Let me know how they ride, I'm thinking about getting the A arms. Are the front forward set like the CATVOS.

I called them yesterday and told lady about issue . She told me they were not aware of spacer issues.

A couple other people bought the lift after I installed mine and they didn't have any problems.
I was one. Everything was labeled correctly and didn't have to cut anything. Guess I lucked out.
