I just thought i'd try to help the next guy out,don't do what I did.
I got 2" blocks from summit for my 99 sport the blocks are cast iron made by Ground Force -$39.00
(they are not angled like catalog says by the way)
I had everything I needed so I took it apart.
when I went to put in the blocks, the mother f*ckin c*ck suckin alinging pins that go into the rear end didn't f*ckin fit in the f*ckin hole.
There is about a .015" difference, so like a dumb-ass(I often turn into a dumb-ass when i'm pissed),
I tried to press the pin into the rear end by tightening the u-bolts down. It didn't work, but I did manage to lock one of the f*ckin lock nuts to the f*ckin u-bolt. I had to cut the u-bolt to get it off,luckily it's still long enough to use.
now I need one 1/2" fine thread nut to finish it and it's too cold to ride the Honda to go get it.
so now I wait for a buddy to get done with work.
The morals are always have help,if it don't fit don't force it,you get what you pay for, do it right the fist time,and watching TV is better than automotive work.
I've been working on my own vehicles for 16 years
and I still have not learned that you can't take short cuts.
