Ok what tool do i use to get this stupid front bumper off? Its 8 bolts correct? You cant possibly fit a rachet in there can you? I tried and i coudnt get the nut to budge. What does everyone use?

 

You've got it. Use a cheater bar if you have to in order to get any super-tight nuts loose. Mine all came off easily with a 3/4" ratchet. Realize that the plastic cover, steel support and tow hooks (if you have them) all come off as one unit. You remove the cover after you have it on the ground. The tow hooks have to be unbolted from the back first and then the cover can be removed.

came off easily??????? Come on? Mine werent budging!

 

If your putting that snorkel on, you don't need to remove the front bumper...lol

What is making you take the bumper off, did you get a new one???

 

Well, a 3/4" ratchet will certainly provide more turning force than a smaller ratchet set. I don't remember any difficulty removing my front bumper, but I also don't remember exactly what tools I used. But, had I pulled out the 3/4" ratchet set, I certainly would have remembered that! I'm pretty certain I used box end wrenches and the 1/2" drive ratchet set/breaker bar. Try a little penetrating oil/WD-40 beforehand to loosen things up.
