CBI Skid Plates for KDSS

Any images of Full CBI skid plates on Gen 5 4runners with KDSS? Every install video I've seen shows them being installed on Non KDSS versions. CBI says they should fit but I'd like to see it.

Thanks

 

I've been wanting to see the same thing. I tried reaching out to CBI on instagram to ask them, but no reply

 

Also interested.

 

They messaged me back via email. Was told that it will work with KDSS. But before I drop $1000 with shipping, I need to see it. I'm not a fabricator and don't have the means to make alterations if need be.

 

Have you checked out RCI? They have an option for KDSS equipped vehicles. Plus they have a package deal.

Oh and here's a video of it being put on a KDSS equiped Runner.

 

I have. Actually have their rock sliders. I just like how the CBI skid is 2 pieces and has more coverage.

 

I installed my CBI Aluminum skids (no gas tank skid) on my 4Runner with KDSS without any issues. Attached a couple of pics.

 

Perfect!! That's all I needed to see and know. Thanks!!

 

How much did you pay in shipping if you don't mind me asking? I heard as much as $220 depending on your location.

 

Hard to tell on driver side but I certainly do not see a KDSS sway bar on the passenger side LCA.

 

I don’t remember now but it wasn’t very cheap. I have a Jeep Wrangler as well and my full skid plates from RockHard had free shipping so wasn’t too happy about the shipping costs on top of the price of the skids.

 

Well, I feel like a dumb arse. I recently bought the 4 Runner from a friend and he said it had KDSS and I never gave it a second thought. I just googled it and saw where they connect to the lower CA and I don’t have that set up. It’s a standard sway bar. I apologize for the potential misinformation. I’ll take some new pics to show the clearance of the skid and the lower CA area.

 

Here are some pics that shows the clearance of the skid and LCA. Let me know it these help at all.

 

Thanks for the shots.

I calculated shipping on these. $253 to ship to my location. Seems very high for a business account for shipping.

 

That’s the other part that keeps me from buying. It’s 220 shipped for only the front skid to my door. That’s insane.

 

I can drive to Idaho and back for that amount. It is insane. Tempted to find them closer to my home and pick them up if I decided to get them.

 

These both appear to have KDSS. Am I right or wrong?

 

Shore’nuf

 

Can't see KDSS on either one of those pics.

 

You can tell those have KDSS because 1) They have the really thick sway bar. and 2) the sway bar connects directly to the lower control arm and not to a sway bar end link like the other versions.

 

Yep

 

Does anyone know what the cbi steel & aluminum weight

 

My Aluminums skids arrive tomorrow supposedly. Can give you an exact weight then.

 

Sounds good thank you

 

KDSS shows up as an idiot light in the right hand corner of the dash when you first turn on the key. That’s only if you don’t know what it looks like under the vehicle or don’t want to get dirty crawling around under there.

 

I ordered a rci aluminum front skid for kdss. Had great experiences with rci on my past vehicles and they only charge $19 for shipping (Colorado to California)

 

Didn't arrive today. Still waiting for exact delivery day via shipping company.

 

Pretty sweet covers!

 

Nice!
How easy/difficult was the install?
