Lower truck to ground
Jack up the front KDSS piston (how high is just depending on your comfort level) Just do it slowly and go as high as you can.
Rock the truck back and forth from side to side vigorously for a full minute
Close the shutter valves
Release the jack from the KDSS piston
Reply back to us and let us know if that worked. I am the only one I know of that has tried that and it did work for me. But only 1 data point is not enough to say this is the fix for the KDSS clunk.

I did something similar to this to try and level it. At this point im removing kdss all together but indont think this is the source of my noise.

Cool, any idea what kind? By the shape of the head it looks non-venomous.

What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!
Still chasing clunk noise I removed mid skid thats been beat all to shit!! While removing it one of the front bolt heads broke off i went and bought left handed drill bit and tried drilling it stopping, starting, spraying lube etc. the bit broke!! I went and bought an extractor and still had no luck. Worst of all, the clunk was still there with skid removed . I bent the mid skid back hitting it with a hammer, for a while!! Its clear this guy takes the brunt if the abuse, then I put it back on with three bolts that are still ok at best. I went to local parts store to find bolts and bought some that didnt work that great. Moab is great unless you need Toyota parts!!

Looks like a "glossy snake" ( Arizona elegens)=Non-venomous and sort of a shiny gopher or bull snake. Eats lizards and mice. That one is good sized (record is 5') and lost a couple of inches off his tail=likely a hawk but maybe a coyote.

Hit 1k miles (actually 1130) and changed over to synthetic (kirkland) and added some NFM as well. Wish me luck.

Only an oil change
Did the first oil change on my 4Runner. Wife asked why I’m wasting my time when we have free oil change from Toyota. I showed her the dealership oil change thread, she replied, “Time to get a Tesla.”

Looks like a Gopher/Bull Snake. Non-venomous and often confused for a rattlesnake - which means most people will kill it out of fear.

Snakes are cool. Please don’t kill them. They’re important rodent controllers. Unfortunately they get squashed often on roadways.
Here’s side by side comparisons of a rattlesnake and gopher snake. Not my photos but notice the different heads and tails. The rattler also has a thicker body.
I see often see these on California hiking trails in spring and summer.

Toytec (RCI) 5° sliders. Glad I started with the KDSS side. Also am very glad I have air tools. Haven't turned a wrench in a loooong while and I'm feeling it lol.

Finally removed the XREAS and added a lift. Bilstein 6112 front, 5100 rear, Wheelers T13, OME UCAs. 2.5 inch front, 1.5 inch rear. Amateur mechanic and a friend that’s a bit more mechanically inclined - the whole thing took us 10 hours in the driveway. Gotta wait 3 weeks for my appointment for wheels and tires and alignment, so it’s going to be driven lightly and look like it skipped leg day for a bit.
