After test fitting and taking Our new KDSS relocation kit on the trails of Uwharrie for 2 days, it's ready for production.
Our Kit moves the front KDSS sway bar 1.5" forward (an additional 1/2" more than other KDSS relocation brackets), and encompasses a LCA Skid plate/ End Link support to keep...
Hi all,
I recently started a KDSS system rebuild on my 2010 LC200 158K miles (NE car rust). When ordering the parts I noticed a part number change for the KDSS pump. When the new pump arrived (ordered directly through Toyota based on my VIN) it was missing the sensor. Not only that, but it had...
2018 GX, 40k miles, 2in lift with all proper spacers/drops, 33s, skids, sliders, & bumpers
When wheeling about a week ago… let’s say I was probably not as gentle as I should have been.
When I got back to pavement I noticed a clunk sound from the front drivers side when I go over speed bumps...
Hi Everyone,
My wife and I recently moved from Dallas to Tacoma, WA, where I now have access to tons of National Forest Service roads and it has been a ton of fun. The stock shocks were getting too bouncy, even in the normal and sport setting, so I found a local shop and had Bilstein 5100s...
I hope I don't regret selling this, but I got my current rusty one working by a miracle. This unit is extremely clean. Hydraulic Suspension Cylinder Accumulator, Control Module, Control Valve, Housing Sub Assembly Seat

This tutorial gives a step by step for installing a 1/2" Cornfed (or other brand) front spacer (aka leveling kit) on a KDSS equipped 5th Gen 4Runner. A 1/2" front spacer will yield a 1" lift due to the geometry of the front suspension.
Rationale:
I consider this 1/2" spacer, 32-33” A/T tires...
I have a set of front and rear KDSS Spacers I don't need. I believe I am missing 2 bolts to be able to install but should be easy enough to get from the local hardware store. $150 + shipping.
I thought I'd throw this out there and see if I could bundle all these questions into one thread. I have a 2014 LC that has a bit of "cruiser lean" on the stock suspension. About 1.5" lower on the drivers side front and back with a full tank of gas. My plan was to see if opening the KDSS...
2007 Lexus GX470
Rare and desirable Sport package with KDSS (kinetic dynamic suspension system). Drives great. Wouldn’t hesitate to drive it cross country today. Strong and powerful SUV. Only ~165k miles. Ready for anything. If you’re familiar with the gx470 and the sports package/kdss you know...
Did some searching and couldn't find an exact match to my question. Lots of threads on how to change out rear Springs (making sure to crack KDSS valves). And lots of threads about stuck/corroded KDSS valves.
One of my KDSS Allen heads on the wife's 200 is completely stripped and rusted on. I...

Replacing struts. Can’t get the KDSS link arm bushing hole to align. Do I need to put it on the ground to do this?
Should I loosen the KDSS bar mounting bolts?
New owner, first time posting here. What is the closest the spare can be to the KDSS bar without risking contact? I'd like to be able to move my spare closer to the bar, which then may allow me to put my Curt hitch back on. I might have 1/2" to spare currently. Thanks.
Well... a few weeks ago the KDSS light came on my dash. It appears after about 5 minutes of driving, regardless of whether I'm taking sharp turns or just driving in a straight line. It goes away when I shut the car off and turn it back on, but then returns 5 minutes later. The driving dynamics...
Hello, I’m brand new to this forum and forums in general. I have a 2012 GX 460 and I’ve had a clunk for a while now. Developed pretty fast after I first got it in early 2021. It definitely is coming from the driver side front KDSS ram. I can have someone rock the car while I’m under there. I am...

Hi everyone - I will caveat that I am no car expert just really love this vehicle. It’s a 2013 USA Lc200. I’ve had this sound for a few years- have left it at multiple Pittsburgh Toyota dealers for weeks where stated they were never able to replicate this sound yet seconds after driving off its...
