r spring spacers good for a 2 inch lift?
r they going to hurt my axles?

i found some 2 inch lift kits that are spacers at all 4 corners for my rzr 570
i was wondering if that would work

Yes it works well. It will be a much stiffer ride because you are just taking the sag out of the spring by adding the 2" spacer. I have a similar set up and like it.

Just expect a stiffer ride. But it keeps suspension in stock geometry. So no CV bind at full droop or of jumps.

When I did it to mine originally the hole machine sits higher than a 3" lift. With stock shock set up.

It will sit higher and is a cheaper way to lift your RZR..But...Your ride quality is going to drop..My buddy had spacers on his commander instead of a lift and me and another guy bought the RT lift and he couldnt keep up with us riding 10-15 mph because it would beat him to death..Now he did have 29.5 inch laws on it to though..

I would buy some springs because you are going to need them anyway sooner or later if you dont already need them..You are doing a temp fix for your ride height and may satisfy you for a little while but spring sag will continue to happen. If you buy some RT springs it will bring your ride height back up to normal if not slightly higher, improve your ride quality and it will last. Then you can buy the RT lift and your set for a long while..

Like you said $25 bucks is not going to break you so if you dont like it then you can take them off but you will eventually have to do something different.

Good luck with your decision

The bottoming out is part of the spring sag..I put RT springs on my 900 and dont bottom out any..I bottomed out a couple of time the last time I rode with my stock springs with only 300 miles.

I agree when you say go ahead and buy springs and lift kit..RT runs specials now where you can buy package deals so you may be able to get a package deal buying them at the same time..

If you dont want to spend all that money at once..buy the springs first..Bottoming out is not good on shocks so you can buy springs now and prolong the life of your shocks or you can wait possibly mess up your shocks by bottoming out all the time..
