How will i know if i have XREAS?

[MikesToy]

Bought my T4R used. Salesman didn't know anything. The book says something about it but didn't say if my T4R with Vin #xxxx has one. Anyways, what should i be looking for if i crawl underneath my T4R?

You can look at the shocks and see if there is a hydraulic rubber line going to them. There is also a tube like cylinder that is outside the frame rail on each side of the truck right where the back door meets the front door and you should see one on each side.

Best I can discribe it.

Thanks Falls!

Take a look at the bottom of the page on member Luxury's thread. He has a picture of what to look for on the rear shock if you have X-REAS.

I have XREAS. Went cornering around town @ 30mph and it works. WhooHoo! It was fun! Now that i know it works, is it possible to lift my ride with it? Or do i have to take it off?

You can do a slight lift (3" front/2" rear) with spacer technology. Check out Cornfed. If you want to go any higher you'll have to change out the entire shock assembly.

Good info, I was thinking about lifting mine too when I get back.
