Installing 3” Spacer Lift with X-REAS Shocks on Toyota 4Runner Limited 5th Generation

[@jamesholbrooks2193]

This is very helpful thank you only video on the net not replacing the xreas

[@michaelwarren4085]

Hello and thank you for taking the time to demonstrate your install. I was wondering if you have had any issues with the lift or handling characteristics as the link provide to Amazon states the following (pasted and copied from site) FITS: 2003-2023 Toyota 4Runner 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser (NOT RECOMMENDED FOR MODELS WITH KDSS, XREAS, OR TRD PRO MODELS)

None so far.

[@HarpreetSingh-sr6eb]

Thanks for the video demonstration it’s very helpful. Am going to do the same lift on my 2023 Limited with X-reas, I wanted to know if you also extended the rear shock bracket along with the 2” spring spacer? Wouldn’t it max out the rear shock and bust the seal? Thanks..

[@amini5053]

Did you get it installed?

[@johnnieb15]

Thanks for the video..just found out I had the xreas shocks this video was what I was looking for…..wish you did one for the rear shocks 😢

[@4x2WagonFamily]

The rear shock is just as easy as the front. Good luck

[@Lyle-1999]

Thanks for the video!

[@luisvera2989]

I did that job on my Toyota. I disconnected the hydraulic lines and there was very little fluid coming out. How do I top up the fluid?

[@DNBVideo]

Are there any problems with stretching the hydraulic line at the bottom of the strut after installing the spacer lift?

[@salmandurrani7662]

Apologies if this is a stupid question I just bought use 4runner limited with Xreas suspension which is leaking a little bit, question is why we need to use those extensions Thanks

[@gulammohiddin5747]

He wanted to add some height to his 4runner. Its completely optional. Btw if your xreas is leaking then its a pretty expensive fix if you want to keep it. Most people actually get rid of xreas and install the regular shocks on all 4 sides.

[@Taga-usig275]

I have a limited 4runner, can I do that to both front and back suspension?

[@4x2WagonFamily]

Absolutely. We did both front and rear.

[@LucidAmerican]

Has anyone put a 2" or 3" leveling kit and started having sporadic noise from the XREAS system in the front end? All other components have been checked, rechecked, and torqued; the only thing that seems to be making noise is the shocks (yet they are NOT leaking). Is it possible that the floating system for Xreas is not working as well due to the rake of the truck being altered?

[@4x2WagonFamily]

Which leveling kit did you use?

[@dmitriyyurchenko3047]

Where can I get 2” just for the front to level out the back

[@dmitriyyurchenko3047]

It will be find to just lift and level the front right ?

[@4x2WagonFamily]

Yes you can level just the front I would do 1 1/2 . You can buy it on Amazon.

[@johnnieb15]

@@4x2WagonFamily do you have video of rear shocks

[@thangmang4697]

great I will do it

[@HTTR_FOREVER21]

Just rip it out, install bilstiens & springs. Xreas is gonna leak eventually anyway

[@4x2WagonFamily]

Which Bilstiens 5100?

[@eelihzuhbeth]

im about to have my front shocks and lower control arms replaced and i was thinking the same lol just going to yoink it out and be done with it.

[@mikeolson8208]

I'm a mechanic those extensions are junk from a lot of brands I use the milwaukee they hold up the longest

[@Bcp69]

He's talking about the extension, not the spacer ​@JEFFQUICKLE9

[@mikeolson8208]

Your using to much lockstep little goes a long way. In the future your liable to have seized bolts or galded threads. Just an FYI not complaint just trying to help you out.
