Since the XREAS seems to function via the shocks acting a bit like pistons, it's possible that the units themselves aren't vented the way regular shocks are, and that the venting that creates the actual damping might be contained in the linking valves mounted onto the frame rails. If this is the case, you'd have a pretty harsh ride, but if it's a short distance without a lot of bumps it might still be OK.

I have no specific knowledge of the system and wouldn't bet any stakes on being correct about this, but I am a mechanical engineer by profession, and it seems possible given the construction and intended function of the overall system. There's an outside chance that someone in the dealer service department might know with some certainty, but I've also had dealers give me back vehicles with major components not re-installed after some kind of service, so YMMV in that regard.
