    You've got quite a bit of additional front weight with an ARB bumper + a winch. I certainly would at least go to something like a Bilstein 6112 to have some additional oil capacity. Might even consider stepping up a notch in terms of spring rate.

    How is your front end lifted now?

    6112/5160 with HD springs would be better.

    Since you're a 4cyl you could benefit from getting coils from a TRD double cab v6 and then the 5100's. Also, 6112's a great value if you want a higher end shock.

    I'd also recommend 6112's with a slightly higher spring rate. I'm at 650lbs on my springs and it rides very smooth. I've got an all steel bumber with winch as well so I feel your pain. The 6112's also have a beefier bottom portion of the shaft so it's a nice upgrade to from the pencil then strut shafts on the oem ones.
