Falcon Tow/Haul suspension w/ KDSS?
 
Has anyone installed this kit on their KDSS equipped 4Runner?
2010+ Toyota 4Runner: Falcon 2” Sport Tow/Haul Shock & Spacer Lift System - TeraFlex

I've been in touch with Teraflex and they seem confused about what their kit actually works on. They said that the bushings weren't sized right for KDSS (which is actually only an X-REAS issue) and couldn't tell me if it'd work with KDSS.

I don't see why it wouldn't but I'm leery to spend money on their product when they don't even know what it fits.

This kit will work fine with KDSS. It's the same concept as bilstein 5100 but a much higher quality product. Installed about a month ago on mine with KDSS and it really is a great set up.

I wonder how much it prevents sag. I’m basically level right now and when I tow the back end always is lower. Pisses me off.

I could be seeing something wrong here but the kit listed is just spacers and shocks? Yeah if that’s the case, a shock’s purpose is NOT to raise a vehicle. It’s to control the speed at which the suspension travels... so it looks like you’re getting fancy shocks and some poly spring spacers for $1600? Seems a little high but inflation has been outrageous.

We tow a 3500 lb trailer often and we not only use a weight distribution hitch (which places weight back on front wheels) but also added the firestone airbag kit. I only inflate to like 15 psi (max kit spec is 30) and my set up is just about perfectly level when fully loaded, maybe a touch low in back.

Then when not towing, just deflate the airbags a bit and the ride is back to stock. And I’m fairly certain the airbags will work with a lift, and you just cut out less of the stock bump stops to accommodate?
