Wow you are actually going to install it. Have you drivin a runner with XREAS? Having XREAS myself I don't see a huge difference between the rigs with it or with out it. Why not put a good aftermarket suspension instead of XREAS.

i love my XREAS and all, but if it didn't come stock, i would've been just fine and happy adding some different suspension components. why do you want to add it? don't get me wrong, it's a great system, but that is going to be a hell of a lot of work, and is going to cost SO much ...

Thanks for the quick feedback Biff & 4route!

Yes, but I didn't push it enough to be able to tell much difference. I am mainly basing my decision on how everyone raves about their XREAS. How much would a good aftermarket suspension run and would it achieve a similar or better result?

So, a total PITA to do this work? If you had to take a guess, how much do you think it would cost to have someone install them (as you are much more educated on the subject of suspension)? Even at near Toyota's cost, do you think it would be too expensive?

Conservatively between $1000-1200 for a stealer install, and since its such a new system they only place you could probably install it would be a stealer.

As far as a good suspension, you could spend from $400-1000 depending on what you need. Billy, or Tracy would probably be able to give you a better estimate.

Is that guess including the equipment or just labor? Thanks again BTW.

I highly doubt the dealers would be willing to install xreas on a non-xreas 4runner. Being able to warranty their work for the parts would be virtually impossible under their business structure. (But I could be wrong).

You're better off getting some quality aftermarket suspension kits. If you're looking for better handling, I'd shy away from spacers though as they just firm up your ride.

Look into some nice coil and shock combos (which are currently unavailable). YOu're best bet would be wait for OME to release their coil and shock combo.

If you want to go bling w/ some coilovers, just stand by as a few vendors will have them out soon (and I'm speaking real soon - more details to come soon).

Good luck! btw, if you need help installing, just give me a buzz, i'll give you a lending hand (and I'm sure others will help out too).

Thanks Good Times for the advice and offer of assistance. I really appreciate it. For now, I'm going to cancel my attempts to get the discount on the XREAS. Once those other suspension upgrades come available, I'll analyze my budget-to-benefit ratio at that time.

Count me in for install help. Just have the food and Red Bull and we'll install everything

Dam I love this forum. Filled with great people that really love their runners. I'll definitely hit you guys up for help if I end up doing something like this. There would definitely be a surplus of food, beer:beer:, and now Red Bull (per Biff's request). And Biff, I would love to get a ride in your SC'd runner :rocker:

 

[Biff]

Anytime

You are aware that once you ride in his sc'd 4runner, you're gonna want it too right? (best walk away while you're ahead!)

cuz if you don't you'll end up thinking about a way to save some $$ for that mod too! hehe

I have a scary feeling that with all your desires for a sports hood, XREAS and more power you might be in the market for an 05 V8 :

No, my gas mileage is bad enough as it is and I am doing more driving now that my girlfriend is up in Santa Barbara.

Don't forget 4wd. I just try not to talk about that one as much because it is even less likely to be added. I have actually thought about the new V8. I just can't afford everything I want:

1. V8
2. 4WD
3. XREAS
4. Moonroof
5. Side Airbags
6. Navigation
7. Leather
   [/list=1] I guess I could get a sport with all that and add the Nav and Leather after the fact. But for now, I'm happy with my runner and adding to it. Maybe over a year from now, I will be able to pic up a steal on a completely loaded used 05. Maybe in white BTW.
   
   Don't get me wrong, I still have a love affair with my 4runner and it is FAR better than any of the other options I was considering.
