Yeah man, its the same one but I used to have it mounted on the Insain mount, but once I got the bumper I moved it to the mount on the bumper which is higher up

Well, I kinda dropped off of the forum after I got my lift on but its been right at a year now and I love it. couple regrets though:
1.Wish I had gone Icon coilovers like I orgininally wanted instead of Fox- they are hard to adjust and kinda stiff
2. Should have painted my panhard drop bracket before I put it on, now its rusted
3. Should have just bought 5 matching wheels instead of 4 so there could be a matching one on my CBI swingout bumper
4. Still havent bought extended sway bar end links. Much needed
5. Rear end could be a little higher, I have Toytec superflex coils but the CBI bumper weighed it down alot more than I hoped
What I love:
1. Bilstein rear shocks are great, couldnt be better
2. Camburg upper control arms are well worth the money
3. SCS Wheels have held up very well along with The KM2's
4. The look of the truck is incredible now, though gas mileage has tanked.
In regards to the MPG I recently purchased a lowered '92 240sx that i have driven alot and has proven to be a great $4k purchase. Girlfriend makes fun of me cause I dont have a normal height vehicle- lifted 4Runner and a lowered 240 on coilovers

Quick update, I will be graduating college in about a month, once that happens I will finally be able to get back to working on my 4Runner, first on the list will be end links, sway bar bushings, and steering bushings.
Also have my other project my 240sx that I will be toying with too

Great looking 4Runner! Love the wheels and the rear bumper.
I hear you on that. All of my personal cars are either lowered or lifted.

Had to do valve cover gaskets again. cam seals in the back of my heads were leaking.
Might dive into repainting my hood myself soon, the paint on it looks horrible, any recommendations on where to get color matching paint? I want to buy a quart of it, I dont want to do spray can
