Within the 4Runner line, the KDSS system is an option for the TRD Off-Road models, but NOT the Pro. Unusual. The TRD Pro has Fox Shocks but no KDSS. KDSS is hydraulic based. My research suggests it is reliable, but when it is not, it is expensive to fix. (about $4k to replace). Has anyone had any experience with it? Dan Edmunds chose to go with the KDSS, and he is a suspension expert.
Those that have it, love it. The issue you can run into is when you attempt to lift it, which can be problematic. However, the on and off-road handling is greatly improved with the KDSS system.
