Default How To Get The Back OEM Bumper Off ?
I don't see any bolts to unscrew. Is there video or photos?

There are 6 bolts that are 5/8's I believe. Two each on the sides of the frame behind each tire, and two more behind the bumper roughly located on either side of the tub for the spare. 10 minutes tops to remove!

Just replaced mine this week. Like interceptor said, six bolts. Inner four are the worst, especially if you have a rubi.

Just lay down under your jeep and look up... it will be clear as day.
If you don't see it, have a few and check again.
