How to remove xreas

[Gatafly]

I don't need to do it yet, but I am a planner and am curious as to what is the correct method/procedure for removing the XREAS system?

Not sure if this will help. Look at the last post by Uneek...

At the bottom of the 4th page of my build thread I did a brief walkthrough on how to remove the XREAS System from the vehicle when I installed my OW 2.5" Suspension Lift Kit. Hopefully it has enough detail to help you out; http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/84725-zombie-truck-2-0-mpav-build-4.html

I think I got it. Best to lift truck by frame to extend shocks first also I assume. Thanks.

Yes, that is extremely important that you lift the vehicle and unload the suspension system. The XREAS is already a high pressure system so you want to unload as much of that pressure as possible.

XREAS removal

Removed mine this last weekend. Went from a V-6 to V-8 last week and thankfully the XREAS was already blown. Leveled the front end with some Toytec stuff and all is good.
