just got a new rear bumper...

looking for a writeup on removing the stock rear... but comming up short... I searched for like 30 differnent combos of rear bumper removal OEM and so on... nothing :(

Got front bumper removals but anyone got a link or know where to look for the rear removal ??

Thanks.

 

Go the www.4wd.com webpage
Go to the bumpers section
Go to fab fours rear carrier bumper for the JK
Download the PDF instructions, the first couple of pages is about removing the stock bumper.

There are only 6 bolts and then you wil literally laugh at how light the thing is. I think maybe 6-8 pounds total!!

or just jump into it - you can figure it out.

 

Very easy. Two bolts on each corner that attach to the frame, two bolts in the center. Take it off and spin it on your finger like a basket ball. Also, it's cool if you herculine it and amaze the neighborhood kids with feats of strength.

 

It's about 8 bolts. 2 on each side in the frame and the others are to get the brackets off. Comes off in about 5 min and it weighs about 5lbs.

 

Arrgh, 12 bolts total including taking off brackets. Leave the brackets on and take 6 bolts off and that is it. 6 bolts, again I say 6 and it is off.

 

Sorry I was distracted by your new avatar.
