how did you get the back bar off the brackets? im trying to swap my rusty old bumper for a brand new line-x'd one. I cant really see back in there but im pretty sure it might be rusted on. did you encounter the same problem?

my bumper was beat from 4x4ing so i finally decided to make something way stronger, better brackets are in the future. As far as taking it off it came off after i removed all the bolts. I dont know how rusty yours was but mine wasnt to bad

Tougher brackets may be better if ur going with heavier bumpers or if you wheel a lot the old rusted ones most likely won't hold up

You dont want to beat on the factory bumper mounts to hard. I discovered wrinkled sheetmetel under mine.
Heres my work in progress.
