Well assuming your trucks never been in a wreck, that could cause the window to not be seated right anymore. Other than that if it's not cracked then yea, just needs a new seal. That is assuming you can re-seal an existing window. I've luckily never had this problem so i'm not an expert on it

My rear window used to leak a little as well. I bought some clear watertight silicone from Lowe's and just smoothed that on top of the seam while standing in the bed. Worked for me.

I'm also looking for a leveling kit, the daystar 2" (KF09106BK) in the link is listed as a 2.5" kit on amazon & summitracing. So is it 2" or 2.5"?

The price compared to the 1.5" (KF09105BK) is obnoxious high! Maybe I'm sticking with the 1.5" kit...

I saw the 2" on amazon for about $113. I was shooting for under 100 but I won't mind paying an extra $13 for it. I thought that was a good price for me. Depends what your looking for. If you don't mind me asking what was the difference in prove of the two for you?

Dont go over 2" coil spacer or lift spring on a 97-03 2wd or you will have major front end issues, if you dont also buy longer UCAs. If you want more that 2" do a body lift or get lift spidles

Sure no problem:
KF09106BK = 2.5"
KF09105BK = 1.5"

That's what I thought, I rather stick with the 1.5" and put less stress on the parts...
