Look on the drivers side front / rear swaybars. If you see the cylinder in red you have KDSS.

From a member, different thread... 'KDSS' warning light when you start up the truck, only there for split second, but you'll see it lit, if it has KDSS.

There are GXs that have KDSS that do not have the sports package IE: dark wood.

Could be burned out.

Only true way is to look at the sway bars and the lines running front to back on the drivers side frame rails.

I too had the itch. I built and still own the Toyota Landcruiser shown here www.adventuredriven.com . We cant wait to get the GX all built up. We think the GX is the new hotness for Overlanding vehicles.
