    Question on this.

    I have a 2014 4runner sr5 2wd, w/o the kdss (not sure that's even an option on the 2wd sr5)

    But looking at the parts online. On rockauto I found lower control arms by Dorman w/o KDSS and all of the upper control arms just state "upper control arm". Do you have to worry about different upper control arms with/without KDSS? Or does it not matter with the uppers?

    Just want to make sure, although I have had good luck with rockauto with other vehicles in the past, their return policy has always been a pain in the ***.

    No difference in upper control arms with or without KDSS.

    The KDSS swaybar connects to the lower control arm rather than the spindle, so a KDSS vehicle needs a special LCA. Same Upper.
