Waking up an old thread... I pulled the upper actuator today, and performed the worm gear “fix”. I plugged back in the actuator to make sure it functions before fighting to reinstall, and I’m now getting all the lights hyper flashing. Dash lights, HVAC display and radio backlights, even the...

Just replaced the XREAS in our '08 with Fox 2.0s. XREAS had 155,000 miles, so a pool noodle shoved in the spring would have been an improvement. We were leaning so bad in corners I thought were going to need armor for the mirrors. I'm very happy with the Fox shocks. Tightened things up...
