Default rear bumper

What is the trick to getting that bugger off? I was at the junkyard today, working on taking one off. I managed to get the bumper end caps off and the bottom bumper bolts out. But that was it. I know there is another bolt up under the top side but could not get at it. The ones that bolt the bracket to the frame were frozen in place. One of these days, I need to get my front bumper off too, to straighten the frame out a tad. The bumper is not beat up, but it sits further in on one side than it does the other. Is the front just as tricky as the back?

There are two bolts near the back of the bracket that bolt the actual bumper on. The bracket is bolted to the body via four bolts. I took the whole brackets off. Pb blaster is your friend. The end caps don't need to come off by themselves.
