Talking '03 Leveling kit?

Ok, first stupid question of the day...ready?

Is there such a thing as a leveling kit for an '03 SCrew 4x4?

Second stupid one of the day:

How do I get to the back of the clear bezel of the instrument cluster? Mines awful dusty and I'd like to clean it off.

Sorry if there's a link somewhere here, I just cannot find it. Thanks, Walt

The only stupid question is the one never asked...

For your first "stupid" question, yes, there are leveling kits for these trucks. Look for "torsion bar leveling keys"

And more expensive ones:

I picked up a leveling kit for my '99 from www.1sourcemfg.com. It was made by Ready Lift suspension systems. After you put it in, make sure you get your wheels re-allined.

You may be able to level your check without buying anything. Look under your truck and see if the bolts pushing the torsion bar keys can be tightened anymore. If so only turn about 1/2 each time then measure, it doesn't take much.

My suggestion. Don't go over 2" of lift by ing the torsion bars. i've gone to 3" and regret it. I'm on my second set of CV axles after only 4,000 miles. I'll be installing a 4" lift to take care of the horrible CV angles and hopefully prevent the CV boots from tearing again.
