IM looking to take off my stock fenders and bumpers... Anyone have any good suggestions

There's a ton of online videos showing each part being removed. I've used alot of YouTube videos to do exactly what you are describing

Are you looking for ideas on what to replace them with or how too?

There are several fender and bumper threads in the show and tell section if you need ideas. Hundreds of possibilities out there...full, mid, stubby, winch, no-winch, factory fog lights, etc, etc...

If you tow heavy loads, without question go for the Smittybilt XRC rear bumper. It's fantastic. Rated for 5000 pounds.

Disregard, you want to take them off.

I like my LOD bumper its heavy duty and the podwer coating was done nice. My DV8 bumper I actually hit it with a ball peen hammer and slammed it against a wall and the powder coating was only scuffed.

There are so many options for bumpers I suggest you get a Quadratec catalog mailed to you they have a great selection to help you figure it out. Some mount the winch inside the bumper and some on top both have their advantages.

Good luck on your search.

yes. Don't get me started. Been covered on here bunch of times. JKU is artificially rated lower due to being "convertible". Liberties can be had rated for 5000. They are lighter, narrower, shorter, and less powerful the year JKU. In other countries. The exact same JKU sometimes has higher ratings like 4400 pounds. Some, including me, have successfully towed 5000 pounds.
