Hyline Offroad TJ/YJ TIRE CARRIER READY REAR BUMPER - Manual (Page 2)

PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
Rear Bumper Installation
Step 1 – Remove the stock rear bumper by unbolting the two 18mm nuts from each side. It’s easier to use a
wrench to remove the top nut nearest the body mount. Next, remove the two bolts on the bottom of
the bumper that attach it to the frame. You’ll also need to remove any factory or aftermarket towing
hitch you may have installed. The stock bumper should be free to remove at this point.
***DO NOT THROW AWAY THE TWO BOTTOM BOLTS. YOU WILL REUSE THEM***
Step 2 –
(1997-2006 TJ Rear Bumper Installation) **For 1987-1995 YJ Installations Skip to Step #3**
Each Hyline bumper we sell comes with Frame Tie-in
Brackets for the TJ Model Year only. To install these brackets
you will need to use a 7/16” Bit to drill a thru hole on
the inside of the frame, using the existing holes in the
frame as a guide. (SEE FIGURE 1)
After holes are drilled thru, Install the Frame Tie-in Brackets,
Using the supplied 7/16-14 x 3-1/2” Bolts. Install parts in the
Following order: Bolt, Flat Washer, Tie-in Bracket, Thru Frame,
Drill these two existing holes through the inside frame. Be
sure to check for wires or any other lines before drilling. The
drill bit will exit close to the gas tank, so as an added
precaution, place a piece of wood or steel in between the gas
tank and inside of the frame to prevent any accident.
