    What are you all doing for a recovery point on with the stock front bumper? What are my options?

    Couple options out there but the ARB is the undisputed king of front recovery points for the 3rd gens rocking the stock front bumper

    Is that the camburg spindle or just a gusset welded on?

    ARB is designed to dive back/down in a front collision (like crumple zones) to save additional frame twisting.

    You should have centered the picture on your Kia.

    Not exactly how I’d hoped for today to go. Driving back from a work assignment and a bonehead sped thru a red light. I tried to stop once I saw him, but it wasn’t enough in half a second. Clipped the front of my Tacoma and went on to crash into 3 other vehicles, some getting much more damage than I did. Thankfully I am okay, just frustrated if nothing else. Obviously grille/bumper is destroyed, fenders and hood are bent as well. Driver door is crunchy opening against the fender. I don’t think it bothered steering/suspension, as it drove fine coming home. I just hope there’s no frame damage.

    Sorry that happened. Ouch. I think I'd cry (after swearing).
    My non-expert view from having 2 other people crash my 4Runner is that your frame and suspension will be fine. Start seeking a good bodyshop as they will check that all out and your future satisfaction will be in their hands. You can work through your insurance company not the other person's; they are often more interested in working with you and will collect from the other side.
