Struts or shocks? If you are driving a Sport,it's your XREAS Suspension.If you remove a line,you will ruin the suspension and need to replace the shocks.

Wait, are you trying to put a Readylift 3/2.5 spacer lift on OME coils?

exactly.. be careful not to disconnect it or else you wont be happy you did. Unless you want to replace all the suspension anyways, then have at it

I was going to replace the factory struts with OME struts/shocks, and coils, now I am at a stop because I did not realize I had the XREAS system. So basically I am screwed at this point

So is it OK to replace the XREAS with OME Coils, struts, and shocks?

You bet that's what I did. Love it and wouldn't go back. Just be careful disconnecting the XREAS. Search for the proper way to remove the lines...I believe you need both wheels off to take the pressure off of it.

This should help:

Yeah just have to do the whole system not just one (in case you didnt know that).. and make sure to read that tutorial (above) about how to remove them. Dont want any issues. I think youll be happy with the OME setup, let us know how it ends up (pics if you can)!

Are you putting the OME and spacer lift on? The OME setup should provide roughly 3 in the front and 2 in the rear without the need for the spacer's. Your going to have to trim or relocate inside your wheel well's or your gonna rub in reverse with those tires. I say cut it....that's what I did.
