Front Bumper Removal
I have a 98 limited with factory tow hooks that I'm replacing the front bumper with a JCR winch bumper. I disconnected the vacuum tank and the 3 bolts on each side. The thing is still solid....am I missing something. I haven't taken the hooks off but it doesn't look like they attach to the bumper in any way.

Hit it with a BFH. It'll fall off
The 3 bolts on each side should be all. At least, that's how my 96 was. Don't think the newer models are much different

The bumper is connected by four bolts, two on each side. Pretty sure the factory tow hook mounts are incorporated into the bumper mounts.... Makes like 6-7 bolts per side iirc
