Raise it back up?
My 03 was lowered on the stock suspension when I got it a few weeks ago. However, I live in a somewhat rural area and the cowl drags on my driveway and on some of the roads that I drive. So I need to raise it back up to stock height. How do I do this? Do I need to put it on jack stands, take the wheels off and just tighten it back up? Any and all help appreciated.

Here's a thread about lowing it on stock bolts, so I assume you just reverse the instructions.

Maybe you read this wrong, but OP is needing help raising it back up, not thinking about lowering it. You post is of no help to him.

I see that I should have stated more clearly so that the OP would understand. He bought a car that is lowered and realizes it sucks to drive it on the street that way.
I did not tell him to lower it. I told him stock height is low enough. I thought that he could make the correlation that I thought was obvious.

I took off the side air dams and trimmed the middle one so we can drive the bit of ROCK road to our house and the voted #1 worst roads in America here is Oklahoma.......NO it doesn't get HOT because I trimmed the middle air dam...
