    Thanks.

    The bolts are pretty much where they have to be, by where the slots in the bar are.
    The one side of the case has a sliding handle I had to work around that's why they're cut all weird.

    Different strokes for different folks, I can't stand it. It clashes with literally everything unless you purposely search for other green accents. Also, I'm curious if they are going to keep the foam cell shocks as well or only switch over to the product that I linked?

    It went well with my black truck. Early pic of my truck.

    I have black springs on there now though, swapped for less spring lb.

    I looked a while yesterday for reviews but couldn’t find any. Thought there would be some from Australia with the Hilux but nope, not yet.

    Missed this part, the IM Instagram said it’s in addition to the FCP. The 2.5 are for those that want a comfort ride and the FCP are for heavier rides.

    It's hard to tell from the photo if you have sharp edges on the brackets. But if you do, one of my favorite tools for smoothing cut edges is one of these Deburring Tools. On all my metal cuts I used to just file them then one day when drilling holes I decided to try my deburring tool, that I use for plumbing, and it's so much easier than filing the edges.

    I have one of these in my tool kit at work, it is absolutely essential when drilling holes for wiring through aluminum.

    It’s also the most affordable tool that Milwaukee makes.
    I might need to buy one.
