How to remove the rear bumper from a stunning Jeep Wrangler? Follow these steps: it’s not too complex if done in order. First, use a socket spanner or battery-powered screwdriver to unscrew the securing pins located on the spare wheel (remove it). Lift the vehicle with a column lift, remove the metal bar located at the bottom of the bumper, then take out the pins located at the sides of the bumper.

Once the bumper is free from any screws or pins, grasp it with your hands and pull it away from the bodywork (disconnect any power cables if present). Finally, install the new bumper following the disassembly steps.
