15 Limited 4WD - 3" Lift - Anything else to be done beside bolt on?

Suspension compatibility question.

I will be installing a 3" lift (Bilstein/Eibach) on my 2015 Limited 4WD with XREAS. Aside from the obvious components and death of XREAS, does anything else need to be done? I believe the kit did come with the front diff drop kit.

Thanks in advance!

I have a 2015 Limited and ditched the XREAS for KING coilovers and Kings in the back w/ ICON Shocks. Anything over 2.5" needs new UCAs to get the alignment in spec. I went with Total Chaos myself. Make sure you grease them up or they will squeak! Only thing I'd add to your list is UCAs.

Agreed on UCA's, dont bother with the diff drop. When taking xreas out if you are pressed for time you don't have to take the whole system out at once, can just disconnect the shocks and do the rest later.

Thanks! Saving up for the Icon Stage 2... hopefully it'll be the first and last suspension I buy for this truck, hahaha.

At stock height, I'm surprised I cleared the obstacles I went through at Cleghorn Trail this weekend. My only modification are 32" tires that rub lock to lock.

Some advice, when you take off the XREAS go to Walmart and snag 3-4 cheap bath towels you can toss afterwards. Then wrap the line in one area you plan on taking apart the first joint. Wear something on your eyes too because high pressure fluid will spray everywhere! After it's bleed dry from one of the joints, you're good to go. Just a PITA pushing the empty lines through the frame to get them off the vehicle. I ended up cutting a few to make it easier.

OR

Disconnect the fittings at the self sealing union joints so there is no mess at all.
