Installation

1.  The great thing about installing a front bumper on a TJ is the simplicity.  First, you will unbolt your fog lights and let them hang until the new bumper is on. 

2.  Next, simply unbolt the top two torx bolts that hold the tow hooks / bumper and one underneath.  Once you have all six bolts removed it will slide right off. 

3.  Your new Model 1 bumper will then slip onto the stock location. 

4.  Now you can put your fogs onto the light tabs on the bumper and then tighten all bolts down and that's it, your done!
