RT4WD Viscous Coupler On A CR-V | HRG Lift Overview 

What is your gas mileage like on it with all the custom work

Good job bro looks good I wish I could do all that on mine

Hey, so why no sway bars? Just wandering how it's affected your driving.

How much was that set up if you dont mind my asking?

Holey moley, you've done a full on job there with the kit. Lot's of mods. It started life as an EK Civic on stilts from the factory an now it's literally on stilts. It certainly looks cool, and not something you see everyday.

Nice CR-V! I have one from Georgia (I live in Maine), sadly only FWD but completely rust free. It can go more places than my car can. They are definitely fun, and just plain neat. It's a shame Honda ventured so far from the CR-V's original image.

Make a video about rear disc brake conversión on the crv

It's beautiful. I have a Hr-v myself from the same gen and with the same 4wd system. It's actually really good in snow.

Hay algún kit completo para levantar mi CRV 2003

Thank you for sharing the knowledge! I used to take my RD1 offroading and I would hate to hear that howling sound in the sand. The CR-V is designed off of the EK sedan, when you look in the engine bay you can see it. The reason it never will be a jeep is like you said. Honda acknowledged this when they designed and built the car. They said that they wanted to have a compact SUV that people could drive like a car, hence most CR-V are FWD. It was a very clever way to spend money. Though the CR-V is fun I never recommend them for offloading due to the lack of torque and the very finicky RT4WD system.

The video was not too long, that was great. The VC setup looks amazing.

Where can i get the oem screws, i bought the crv lifted. And need the oem screws

what driveshaft is that out of? Model and year? what did it cost with the mods??

God the axles look so much better!!! Great job on the vid man.

Looks amazing, but its so much you gotta do to lift 🤯 I know how to lower cars, but lifting is a whole other game. I have a civic that I use mainly like a track build so lowered. Recently got a 2000 crv awd and want to lift it,but seeing this has me mind blown.

what wagon is the coupler from - where did you get yours from and how much? other options for coupler - what year freelander? I've heard using the element differential is much stronger? this is a great video thank you btw thumbs up and subscribed! I'm stoked you're having so much fun building it. that's why I bought one too- just starting doing my research - never had a suv always cars so this will be a fun change for me. keep it up!

I think it looks excellent

Thanks for making this video. I grew up in California but I moved back to the UK to be with my family. I have a 1997 RD1 and I convinced my dad to buy a 1999 RD2 with an auto to manual swap. Thanks also for mentioning the Freelander coupler I'll have to look into that. I spent some time building Chevy muscle cars but I never thought I'd enjoy working on Honda's so much.

How do those bilstein struts ride? I’m looking for a OEM+ replacement!

My crv is bone stock but i hope to someday build it like yours. amazing looking car.

excelent video! I like the ending and couldn't agree more. Looking forward to your trips, love those as well.

Hi. Did it require the steering wheel extension?

Where is the snorkel from?

wicked car

What size lift spacers did you use on the back? I don’t want my crv to be higher on the back… Good video great info thanks!

Thanks man.

Hello. Sorry, my english is poor. My question is, what shocks absorber are used, and what kind of springs? Thank you!

Look nice

Nice

Awesome work brother much love from upstate new York southern tier 🙏🏋️‍♂️

So sick

Nice video and explicación I have a question I just buy a block spacers on eBay 3 inches do I have to buy all the 1 in 1/2 inches spacers do I have to remplece something out thank you

I bought a 2000 crv and i didnt realize till i got it home that there was no drive shaft on the car @_@ you think i fucked it up driving home without the driveshaft? it made it fine

Really cool dude fix up what you have.

Dude. That is a SWEET looking CRV! Subscribed for the look of your CRV alone!! I'm not a mechanic, but I'm learning! Just bought my son a 97 CRV with the 3" HRG lift, but I don't think they installed the drop kit, as the wobble is terrible at low speeds and turning. I'm looking at buying the drop kit, but I'm a little scared to tackle the install...althoughyou said it's easy, and I HAVE watched HRG's install video as well...RU-vid vids ALWAYS look easier than when I attempt things! HA!! Thanks for the video!! Looking forward to more!

How come the upper front cambers are flip? They are made to lower crv and the camber flip is for lifted crv?

Excellent video. You really have put some proper thought and work into this build. Love to see it.

What a great build, thanks for the walkaround and explanantions of key things. Looking to go very similar direction with my RD1 build. Are those functional rock sliders? Appreciate any more info. Thanks

Part # for the Napa axle please 🙏 thanks

Do you have a link for the front uppet control, like the specific part number that works with a 1999 crv?

Can you give us a list of the parts used apart from the drop kit and spacers. Link to the axles etc. My rd1 came with 4x114 rotors on 15s.

Just bought these same tires and received them today and clicked this vid by random and have to say I like the look of them on the CRV and I didn't even have to install yet.

How much trimming required for the adjustable toe kit? As I had a slight issue with my toe adjustment...

did you notice a big improvement from the front strut brace? Nice CRV!

Hi i would like to be helped to get a crv honda RD 1 all gear box repair kit bearings Am in Tanzania

You will scrub all over the place with 235/75's

Why is it you flipped the upper control arm again?

I wish your my best friend,, and your here in my place then your helping me to do the same with my crv hehehe just imagining,, nice crv,, hope I can meet someone that can help me do that in my crv,,

What the best year CR-v to mod, thanks

I like it i have a 2001 i just want a small lift and bigger wheels thats it ill be happy with that .

Love my 98 crv

Hello. great video. If i lift my crv with the 1" inch kit i have to make all this stuff?

Are you running a catalytic converter?

FANTASTIC Video! I very much have decided to do this, just trying to decide between the 3" ultimate and 4" ultimate kits. So I'm while I'm working on the mechanical parts list, the wife wants to know where you got the side graphics. She saw the CRV ones on ebay, but liked yours more. Yours is such a clean build. great job with the Honda.

Приветствую Вас, от какого автомобиля поставил кардан и хвостовик заднего редуктора.

Where did you get your headlights??? Nice

Have you experienced any wobble after hitting bumps? I’ve lifted my rd1 about 4 inches and I’m getting a crazy sway after hitting dips at highway speeds. Waiting on rear upper camber arms to come in, notices bushings were a little worn, any info would help!

Hey, love the build! Quick question. I'm considering getting the OME spring/ Bilstein combo. Do i need to worry about the adjustable links for the trailing arms with keeping the lift minor? I didnt know if thats only something to worry about once you drop the subframe.

Wicked cool video man! love seeing everything you've done to it and all the information. Like that detail on the napa axles, I've read about lifting crvs a lot and never heard that. Didn't feel too long to me. subscribed

Where did you buy nerf bars or foot step

Excellent video thanks

I have to remove the front and rear bars? It is lifted.

Looks really clean. I dont own a CRV but have appreciation for all the time and effort you have invested. Thanks for sharing with us on RU-vid

Where did you buy the nerf bars

Question did you ever had vibration from 20 miles to 25 mph I change the axles from CR-V I change the upper am from true hard then I started having that issue

👍👍

Very nice job of cr-v

You did an awesome job 👏 🏆🏆🏆

This thing is gorgeous!!!

when you say the CRV AWD systems got better, what model yr did it improve?

That's nice I like it 😊✌️👍

Great job , Very well done. I agree with you, do things for you,because you like it not to make other like it.

Where is your front Sway Bar?

answered lots of my questions

I'm thinking, I'll just accept that it is a CRV runabout and not and off road machine. I'm going with new wheels and slightly bigger more aggressive tires. Skid plates and accessories to make it look good.

That blue redline tho

Where do you buy the brake line

does removing stabilizer bar help?

Nice CRV! A couple of questions about improving performance; are the Bilstein Struts and Siberian RTA bushings a better upgrade than any other brands especially with energy suspension bushings? Is the viscous coupler a must in improving drivability/reliability with the RD1s? I am not looking to off-road the car at all maybe here and there sometimes but never a long trip off-road not longer than an hour tops. I have many more questions to ask about improvements recommended to do but here is just a couple of them for now. Thank you for sharing I look forward to more videos 👍🏽

Links?

Where can I buy a viscous coupler? Do you have another one?

Super cool 😎

0:59 Awesome job but screw that rear exhaust.

What year make and model for the wagon?

Great looking crv! Looks like a lot of fun thanks for the vid👍

So why do a sub frame drop?

Outro perfectly says it all..build for yourself!!

The last minute of the videos everyone needs to listen to for sure.

What size tires are you running?

i don't really see the second gen Crv (Rd5) being lifted
