Rear Bumper & Cover

[naval-avi8or]

Anyone know what tools (including wrench sizes) required to remove a bumper and bumper cover. I'm on a Detachment to CA and would like to swing by one of my old pick and pull stomping grounds tomorrow. I didn't plan on doing this so I will need to pick up the required tools.


Thanks

That's it. Take a ratcheting wrench if you have one and a 3/8s ratchet with a normal socket. There's 4 bolts on either side of the car, holding those shock absorber thingys to the bumper. You might not actually have all 4 on either side, my car only had 3. Not sure if that's stock or if that was the PO.

Once those are done slide the bumper straight back about 1 foot, the sides should unclip and the whole thing will be off. Easy job, but sometimes the bolts are rusty.

Well I was very unfortunate today as for the first time in over three years that I came up empty handed. I usually have at least three SHO's to pick from this time not a single GEN II in the yard. They only had 1 GEN I.

Thanks for the help.
