- Thread starter chevyssjp
- Start date
26''
Well guys i put the 1.5 leveling kit on the front,then the rims and they did rub hard over and hard over both ways.Not really bad a little bit of trimming of finder wells i think she will be smooth sailing.Here are a few pics of my adventure today.If i would go to a 255 are 265 series set up i think there would be no trimming invoved.But money spent on these already so im gonna make them work.Does anyone know the correct procedure for bleeding the struts?kinda lost some fluid not really knowing they had a supply line.Sorry my first toyota and oil supplied struts.:bash: and to you haters on the thread i have something for you:flipoff: thats some funny ass icons.Ha. Thanks peeps for the help and answers.

Oh C'mon! We need better pictures then that! Way to do what YOU wanted!
Rather then cut your liners in the front, pull them forward . Take out the bottom 2-3 screws on the bottom forward side ,push the liner as far forward as you can, make new holes and put the screws back in to hold it forward.You should get a 1/2" or so of extra clearance.
As far as your X-Reas shocks...... I hope you didn't take the hydraulic line loose at the shock and lose oil. These are a closed system and can NOT be serviced,even by Toyota themselves. The lines run from left front to right rear and vice versa on the other side. There are check valves at the unions on the frame where the lines run and they can only be taken loose there and with all 4 wheels in the air to relieve pressure in the lines. Manual states they have to be replaced if more then 1 or 2 DROPS of fluid is lost when disconnecting at the check valves.

oh sh!t... you didn't inadvertently drain the XREAS lines, did you?!... those rims will be the most expensive mistake you've ever made! sorry to hear about your troubles. hope it works out.
Good idea on the liners on the front and back side i did notice the 3 screws on the back liner holding a small piece of the well ,i will try to make adjustments.Well i guess im screwed on the struts .Guess im gonna have to put some on order then .Well any suggestions on new struts maybe an aftermarket that will match up.Im a dummy ,guess i shoulda done a little more research.Im gonna do some adjustments eventually on the wells and then i can try them on again and take more pics.

Sounds like someone is getting a lift for their Limited not just a level! Then that said person can get a tire a little taller then a 30 series.

Where are you at? in La.? Road trip?I have a set with 5k miles on them that were removed the right way. They are sitting out in my storage building that you can have dirt cheap/$200 and they still have and include the Toytec spacers worth $120 on them. Hyd. lines and everthing is too big,so I won't ship so you'll have to pick them up here in Ft. Worth if you want them.

Sure, they can be put on a SR5. Like I mentioned though they are irregular shaped and long and would be hard to ship. I won't attempt it as somebody had asked me before! Another thing is it's pretty complicated where and how they go on. He already has one in place for a blueprint so he can just swap out a section at a time.
Here's the parts all together on a 4x8 sheet of plywood and a shot of the unions and what the check valves look like. There are 4 of them and they have to come apart there only.
Hey guys couldnt i just switch to like an aftermarket strut like a bilsten in the front struts, and just leave the back struts alone keeping them factory.And just disconnecting them at the correct fitting with the check valve.im guessing the bilstens arent hyd connected to the lines like the factory xreas were"right''.are they self contained.
