Joe,

I'm not an expert, but have successfully remove the rear bumper from my 63
Rampside in 15 minutes. Yes, remove the obvious bolts. Remove grille, if you
have one. Then, you will see bolts on the "frame" pointing towards the outer
side of the vehicle. Remove these bolts; the bolts go through the bumper
brackets. Presto, the bumper brackets (and bumper) slide out.

Hope this works.

> Hello group,

> I have a 61 greenbrier that I am giving to a friend this weekend for
parts, and I am trying to remove the rear bumper ASAP.  I have removed all
the obvious of bolts(from the brackets), but I am missing some as it is
still not loose.  Seems to have a wealth of bolts around the holes for the
tow hooks.  Which of these must I remove?
