TKHFab Bumpers Installation
Remove All Six ½” Diameter Torque Head Screws on the bottom and the top of each side of the front bumper Remove tow hooks from each side. Slide the stock bumper forward and off of frame rails.
Check new bumper mounting tabs for burrs or imperfections Measure distance between tabs to assure fit onto the frame rails.
Slide bumper over frame rails, align bolt holes. Replace tow hooks. Start all six - ½” Torque Head Screws Torque all six - ½”Torque Head Screws to 80 Ft. lbs. I have a Fog Lamp Plates under the tow hooks.
TKHFab 54” Single Hoop Front Bumper Nice!
The stock rear bumper has two 12 mm studs spot welded to the bumper and one 12 mm bolt and nut on the bottom on each side Remove all six nuts to slide the stock bumper off. If your Jeep has a rear tow hook on the left side, you’ll need to remove the additional bolt and remove the hook.
Temporarily mount new bumper. You’ll need eight 12mm x 60mm bolts. You will be able to reuse the two bottom stock bolts and nuts. You will need a total of ten bolts, but the rear stock bumper only had six bolts. Because of the receiver you need to use more bolts
Mark the additional 2 holes on each side of the cross member. Remove the new bumper and center punch the four new bolt positions. Drill four ½” holes in the cross member Remount the new bumper with all ten 12 mm bolts. Tighten all bolts to 57 Ft. lbs
The space behind the cross member is tight because of the gas tank. I made a 3/8” x 2” x 2-1/2” tap plate for each side rather than remove the gas tank The center between the two holes is 1-1/8”. I was able to slip the tap plates behind the cross member and tighten up the 4 bolts.
