It replaces the OEM passenger-side fixed KDSS link with a longer, stronger 7075 billet aluminum link while keeping a spacer on the driver-side KDSS strut — the same goal as rear KDSS drop spacers, done in a stronger, safer, more trail-resilient way. Fits 2010+ 4Runner, GX460 and Prado 150 with KDSS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Exists\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKDSS trucks are being wheeled harder than ever. Drop off a ledge or land on a rock and the OEM passenger-side fixed link can take a direct hit. When it bends, the sway bar goes out of alignment — and that misalignment can stress or damage the KDSS shock shaft. This billet link removes that failure point entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces the weak OEM fixed passenger-side KDSS link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains correct sway bar position at full droop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents sway bar misalignment that can damage the KDSS strut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAllows full rear droop with extended-travel shocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeeps the KDSS strut piston within its OEM operating range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClears up to a 285\/70\/17 spare tire in the factory location\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC-machined 7075 billet aluminum, significantly stronger than the OEM steel link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack anodized finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKit Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBillet Fixed Link + Driver-Side Spacer\u003c\/strong\u003e — the complete upgraded setup, built for harder use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBillet Fixed Link Only\u003c\/strong\u003e — for owners already running two rear drop spacers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear KDSS Drop Spacers (Pair)\u003c\/strong\u003e — the simple, proven spacer solution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear KDSS Drop Spacer (Single)\u003c\/strong\u003e — for owners who already have the link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included (Billet Link)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 7075 billet fixed link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-installed 3\/4\" Pro Bearing uniball with snap ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) M10 × 1.25 × 60mm flange head bolts (clear zinc)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) M10 × 1.25 locking nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Stainless steel high-misalignment spacers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Washers — use with the locking nuts on older round bushings with thinner caps; not needed with updated (typically 2018+) thicker bushings and caps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKDSS-equipped vehicles only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks only with Dr KDSS or Treaty Oak 2\" rear drop spacers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot compatible with other or unknown spacer brands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstall Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest installed with the vehicle on its own weight; rear axle on jack stands is fine for extra room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport the rear sway bar at the center with a hydraulic floor jack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicles 2–3+ years old or from high-salt areas: soak the bolts with penetrating oil a few days ahead — these bolts are known to seize and break\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport the rear sway bar with a floor jack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnbolt the driver-side KDSS strut bolts and passenger-side fixed link bolts (14mm).
