bumper bolts

[Kristian]

Hi,

I am trying to remove the factory installed bumper for my 1988 Jeep Comanche and am having trouble finding the bolts. Any tips?

Thanks!

Front or rear?

I’m going to assume the front since the rear is fairly obvious. Get underneath and look forward in front of the tire, there should be a rubber splash guard. Pull it back from the supports then look into that spot, you should be able to see the upper bolt. There are two bolts per side going into the upper and lower lip of the bumper. The lower one is removed from the front under the bumper, if you have the plastic bumper pieces it’s the same bolt. Your vacuum canister is bolted to the right end of the bumper, unscrew it from the bottom so you don’t break the line.

For what appears to be an unrestored vehicle, the photos you posted show a VERY clean MJ.  👍
