A leveling kit is usually just torsion bar keys that raises the front of the truck 2 inchs. The keys are the same the cheap ones arent any better than expensive ones so just get a cheap set! Im sure someone will get some pics up for ya!

I just picked up a set of CST leveling keys and a pair of Fox shocks that bolt it the whole set up is $356.00 dollars which is not bad at all, plus the shocks are rebuild-able but since they are the same type i use on my race truck just smaller and dont get beat up like those they will last along time with out one, and are set up for the weight for the D-max too.

the break down is

CST Keys-$93.00

Fox shocks- $263.00

and these prices are for racers (cheaper then public can get them)

with install and alignment, just a bit over 500.00 bucks for everything.

if your interested let me know

How about this ... most people don't even need to buy keys to get a couple inches out of there front end... saved you even more money

You just need to check your truck to see how much adjustment you have factory. Most people don't even realize this because all they do is take out the factory keys and replace with a product that was packaged to get a lift out of your truck. The reason why I post this is because of the negative affects that you can end up with when using keys. Most people over adjust the front end then chase there self for a better ride. So money ahead is to check you truck first and spend money if you truly need them. I will add that the factory shock is to short so a extender or longer shock should be used for better end result.
