The only thing I've found so far is a DayStar kit. Runs about $80. That's probably what I'll get.

The DayStar kit is a polyeurethane spacer that rides atop the front coils. I haven't seen a 2WD 03 yet, but I didn't think they used coils...? Again I've never seen or read much on the 2WD since that isn't my cup of tea, just offering my $.02

2003 2wd front suspension uses coils. The coils are short and heavy. Remind me of a regular screwdriver and a stubby screwdriver. The difference in height of 4x4 and 4x2 is 4 inches. Not many after market add-ons available yet. We hear of more every day.

FabTech deals with a lot of 2wd/prerunner lifts - you might check with them.<br>Chris

Re:Lift Kits for 2WD SRW 3500

I would stay as far away from Fabtech as possible. Same for the whole &quot;AIM Industries, Chassis Tech&quot; group. Either RCD, CST, or Camburg would be who I would contact. I'm actually planning on calling all 3 monday about a 4&quot; lift spindle for the 2500/3500 2wds. CST just released a 4&quot; spindle for the 1500s so hopefully I'll have good news ;D
