Did you guys use the 1" wheel spacers in using the HL 2.5" lift kit? If using stock wheels and tires.
The guy you tagged hasnt been on the forum since you joined in 19’
so I doubt youll get an answer from him Lol.

Like stated above, yes you will need spacers cuz of rubbing. But Ill add to that and say why use stock wheels and tires with a lift? Youll look kinda funny! Also, your gonna have camber and geometry issues with this type of lift You cant fix with stock arms. You can do the lift, just wanted you to know cuz most folks come back asking why to these questions. The best way to lift your machine is with new arms so u can adjust camber and aftermarket shocks with preload and get you some different wheels To fill in.

So now that's out the way, congrats on your first time Posting since joining in 19’ Pretty awesome!

You should have to use the spacers. The tires will rub the upper bolt on the front shock. RB3 makes good stuff. Depending on what you want to run will require different sizes. Even with my aftermarket wheels I had to use front wheel spacers.
Thanks, did you use spacers on both front and back?

Thanks, was just trying to figure out a less expensive way to get a little more clearance without going to new tires and wheels as well. Seems like that was it using the HL. These forums are great for good advice and answers to some questions. I have seen the kits with new a arms. I will give it some thought. Thanks again! Pic is from last years elk hunt

Yes.

Yes. I looked all over my purchase history to confirm size but I can't find my original purchase. I followed what most others on this site do to keep the front and rear wheels even. I think it's 1" or 1.5" front and 2" in the rear. I cannot remember what size I chose tho.
