    it's been well worth the investment. if i could go back the only thing i would change is going with camburg for the ucas and maybe getting resis on the shocks, but wes has those on his taco and it doesn't seem like i'm missing out too terribly.

    When you swapped out the suspension did you only remove the xreas shocks or did you remove the entire system? Was it hard?

    we removed the entire system. it wasn't as hard as it was frustrating and if you're not trying to salvage the system for later use, it's pretty easy. we had an oil pan ready for any liquid in the system but it was very minimal.

    Why not take your time and remove it without screwing it up? Do you realize how much the xreas system costs? You should be able to sell it on a 4r forum without a problem.

    I wasn't gonna screw it up. By not saving, I meant by not keeping. I'm pretty sure the front two shocks are already leaking anyway. I was searching last night and found a couple threads on removing it.

    Along with the 4 shocks you also have the 2 "center units" to remove and be able to sell. With that system if you need to replace a shock you also have to replace the corresponding center unit.

    Anyone else do this in their phones? I just saved someones number and it made me think so i searched "tw" in my contacts. Thought it was kinda funny. And this is only like 1/3 of what i have.
