I have had a 2" lift on mine for about 7 years. Just put highlifter springs on last night cause I use mine for alot of plowing. I also us mine for hunting pulling deer out of the woods so the extra 100 pounds of load capacity is gonna help. Have had zero problems, and I really beat her pretty good. She is a Honda so go for it. No wheel spacers but I think there comin in the near future.

Got the pucks ordered. Now I just gotta figure out how to compress my springs. I read somewhere that said the tool from Auto Zone was too big. Still gonna try though. Thanks for the tip.
