I was looking at one of the rear shocks and it looks like there is some damage to the threads, would like to address this before I install them. Got a really good deal on them so can't complain.
One question I had is did you change the rear spring as well, I know the limited springs are different. I know you only had the fox stuff on for a few hours but how was the ride compared to the XREAS, stiffer, did the nose dive under braking go away.

I had the studs rethreaded but the previous owner(s) may have cut/modified it as it seems a little short. I didn't have all the hardware like the bushings or washers. I had to modify some bushings so I could catch a couple of threads with the nylock nut. Thread pitch was 14 x 2.00. I called RideFox and they said the studs are threaded into the shock so I could have gotten new studs if I had the time to wait for it. I'll just have it serviced once it starts to fail. So far the ride is a little stiffer than XREAS. Nose dive was not noticeable as much as the XREAS. I removed the XREAS completely from my 4Runner. It drives nice and so far I'm liking the "upgrade".
