I just purchased a stinger front bumper and have yet to install it, i am asking for suggestions or ideas on the best way to get the existing bumper off.

I am replacing the front and rear bumpers. ive been told pb blaster and wd40 for a few weeks before im ready to install. i bought a breaker bar and am going to assume that i will probably end up snapping a few bolts since they were pretty well rusted when i looked up under there. Does anyone know the type of oem bolts that are on 99 xj that hold the bumpers on. i want to order some more bolts before i started the project just incase i snap a couple.

suggestions, ideas, pictures if you have a stinger front bumper too.

thanks

My bumper that I made, sorry it isn't a stinger lol.

The oem bolts are 10 mm, I forgot what pitch.
I bought grade 10.9 mm bolts for two holes that had factory nuts welded on inside, and 4 1/2 inch bolts on other 4 holes and I made unibody tie ins along with few more bolts.

If u have a steering spacer (should get it if ur getting aftermarket bumpers) you would need three longer 7/16 bolts
