    Good Day 4Runner Family, again thanks for letting me join the group.

    I have this dilemma on putting a Toytec leveling kit and not really prepared to yank XREAS on our 2015 LTD and pay big$$$ :( for a new suspension. Was wondering if the ride changes when you put a leveling kit, need advice from you guys, just do off roading over the weekends nothing crazy (eventually ;) )

    thanks in advance:)

    I don't have much experience with the xreas, but I think I remember someone saying that it has to be removed when you lift (not sure about level). Someone please confirm or correct.

    I have removed xreas on my 2019 Limited with few hundred miles on the clock. My plan was to get 2.5 in front and 1.5 in the back. Adding 1.5 spacer at the back Toytec told me that shocks on Limited are too short, so I had to get 2 Bilstein 5100 for rear. With xreas when you swap rear shocks the front are un-useable as front and rear is connected. So I used the shocks from my TRD Offroad with a Toytec 2.5 spring. Here's the video explaining what has done to it.
