I remember reading that I need to install wheel spacers with a 2" lift.  I can't find what size?  Does anybody know?

If any it would be 1.5"

I used the high lifter 2" and didn't need spacers?

Jeff, I believe spacers are needed when lifting a trail model.  My question is will a 1" spacer get the wheels out enough to prevent rubbing?  If I recall someone said that using 2" spacers you're going to be changing wheel bearings more often than normal.

For sure you will. I ran 1.5" for one season and replaced all 4 wheel bearings. It beats the hell out of them. A friend of mine bought 2 rear rims and uses them on the front they stick out further now. I think the front is the only place rub will be an issue. Plus now he has 4 tires all the same now. I just did a superatv rzr 3" lift on mine today you remove the bottom shock bolt and there's brackets and bolts included Plus the 2" spring lift from a while back. I have lots of cleavage now!

Is your goal to go larger tires?
