front bumper removal

I got the brite idea a couple weeks agao to build a front end replacement bumper. I got the bumnper all ready to put on and I just need to the stock bumper off and slap teh other one on. are the stock bumpers ment to be that hard to get off? the to bolts on either side on the frame are hard to acces becasue the sway bar is in the way and the sway bar has to long bolts that are just about a solid peice of rust. and the other 12 or so bolts are just a pain to unbolt. so I just took a torch to the bolts and cut a circle aroudn each one. it was one tough job that looks so simple. are they supossed to be liek that?.................Gibson

Re: front bumper removal

how are you mounting your other one?

I got mine with a rep. bumper, so I couldnt tell you, but the only thing that would have gotten in the way of mine is the bumper (but i dont know cause i never had one)

How are those Stage 1 injectors working out for you? I call ken all the time, but he never answers...
