Do alot of research on X-REAS .It's actually a good ,tried and true suspension system,had it on my last 4runner too. It is a closed system and connects the right front shock to left rear and left front to right rear.You do not disconnect them at the shock as they cannot be reserviced and will be trash. You have to raise all 4 wheels off the ground to equal pressures and disconnect at the unions that have check valves. Every 4x4 shop I went to around here was scared or did'nt know what the heck I was talking about and declined to do it.
I was'nt sure where or actually which side of the unions to disconnect.So I took the high road and did it myself in the wheel wells with spring compressors and a ball joint separator without disconnecting the shocks at all. A real PITA and would'nt do it that way again.
Good Luck
