Guys based on my own staged R&D of this issue, putting an ARB steel bull bar started the KDSS lean of -20mm to the drivers side.

Thanks Bruce and Peter. So if I understand it correctly I will lose my sport/comfort settings if I change the shocks even for Bilsteins. If I change just the springs then I can keep the settings but I must use springs of different lengths to cater for the KDSS lean. Who did your mates Kakadu Bruce?Comment

Does anyone know if this KDSS lean problem is also in the new 200 sahara update??Comment

The KDSS lean is purely caused by removing factory front springs that are NOT equal in length ( Drivers side approx 15mm taller) then installing two equal length springs....that simple.2010 Kakadu with all the usual stuff.... Build up thread below

How hard would it be to replace just the front springs on the Kakadu? I asked Toyota but they said they don't fit aftermarket suspension.Comment

OK thanks, probably a bit beyond my skills and tools.Comment

I checked out my current ride heights yesterday and they seem a bit weird :-
Driver Front = 875mm
Passenger Front = 880mm
Driver Rear = 890mm
Passenger Rear = 912mm
Had pumped up the tyres on Wednesday and tank was full. I only have the steel TJM bar on the front.
The fronts were pretty even but why the 22mm difference on the rear?Comment

Just checking if you were measuring from bottom of rim to top of guard? The measurements looks quite high.
You seem to have a bit of a lean at the rear. It might be because you were parked on uneven ground or the height sensors are not at the same position both sides.Comment

Yes, bottom of rim to top of wheel arch (the external part, not the liner) using the centre of the hub as a guide line.Originally posted by amts View Post
It was on the flattest part of my driveway but it is possible the driveway has a lean to one side. The end section of my drive has dropped but the car was parked on a seperate continuous piece of concrete.You seem to have a bit of a lean at the rear. It might be because you were parked on uneven ground or the height sensors are not at the same position both sides.
Ride height setting was on "N".Comment

The measurements still look way too high.
Refer to the Suspension Measurement thread. http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread...n-measurements
Just need to allow for your 18" rims which adds 13mm to 17" measurements.Comment
