Well as I mentioned earlier, there was a whole lot of cursing involved in removing the rear bumper but the damn thing just didn't want to come off...I sprayed the nuts and bolts with lots of WD-40 but 4 out of the 10 just kept spinning and wouldn't back out

Looks like I'm going to need to either cut them off with a sawzall or get myself a torch. I got sick and tired of messing with the nuts and bolts after 3 hours so I moved on and installed the rear led light bars...I took some pics during the day and they were bright but I just got home now that it's dark out and these things are insanely bright!

I'll take some more pics in a little while when I go get gas

My How spent its entire life in Jersey, and mine wasn't too bad to get off. I just used hand tools. Have a breaker bar handy tho, and wear some gloves. You def don't wanna skin your knuckles!

I had my 2 ft breaker bar and definitely needed it! those damn things were so tight and rusted!

Gonna try a torch or cutting them off next

Hmmm.... There shouldn't be any nuts that can spin. They are all welded. And they're should only be 4 21's, too. One on each end (you need a little extension to get on it) and two by the receiver.

You're correct brother, it was 4 out of the 6 - 18mm bolts that were spinning
