Search for an old man emu kit for your car. They are lift springs, then just get some bigger tires and your set

I did, one place told me they only make a 3 inch lift for the rears and nothing for the fronts. Any links to direct me to where I can find them. Disabled vet here with a head injury, so really not good at locating them as I use to. Thank you

My bad again. Another option is get the 1.5" springs and get a set of pucks made for the top of the struts. Any of your local machine shops could knock those out pretty quick and easy

I'll have to look into that, it's the first for me.. as u saw on the rear photo, the right side is lower, not sure if it's a shock or spring that's gone bad, gotta get it looked at, but need to get all four done and replaced, 10 yrs old it's time

I didn't even notice the sagging, how many miles do you have on it? I went ahead and changed all 4 struts with the lift springs, I'm a pretty firm believer changing all struts at the same time.

It was barely driven, and more in garage then driven. But ya, I noticed it the other day, so I am just needing to find out what I need so I can order all new for fronts and backs and do full replace fresh.

2" Lift Kit CR-V 2002-2006 and ELEMENT 2003-2010 - Lifts for CR-V, RAV4 and More!

CMR offers 2" lift pucks, may be the easiest way out... I've heard their customer service is extremely poor.

They also offer just a 1/2" sag correction for your car... But that doesn't really help if your trying to lift 3 inches

That's if I can find a lift first that will raise me 3 more inches or I may have to go with the 1 - 1/2 inch lifts and then go from 16 inch wheels to 17 inch customs that I like still

This is only a 2" lift on my rd1. Springs on stock struts. But the tires added easily another 1.5" of ground clearance... I think if you went the same route and got those 2" spacers with a good sized tire you would be pretty happy with it.

A good buddy of mines lives in australia, and said he'll also look around there since crv''s are big there with lifting, and gonna see if he can find a 3" or inch bigger, I know dobson's is from there too, excuse the typos
