      Merideth: If you need some added protection and to complete the aggressive appearance on your 1987 to 2006 YJ or TJ Wrangler, this Officially Licensed Jeep Trail Force HD Rear Bumper with the Jeep Logo will do just the trick. This will be a perfect addition to your build if you want added utility and strength to the rear end if you're taking your Jeep off-road and need some of those added recovery features. The build of this bumper will also just flat out change the appearance of the rear end and elevate the look when it comes to styling if you want to match with any other HD accessories. Now, it's also a good pick if you're a fan of the Jeep branding because frankly, who is not? And this is going to make it a good way to add it into the mix in a subtle but stylish way.Now, this is going to feature a boxy yet higher clearance design which will not only provide great coverage but also allow for better departure angles when you're off road. This is also going to have two welded D-ring mounts for solid recovery and included D-rings if you get into a sticky situation. This bumper will also include a 2-inch hitch receiver welded to the bottom of the bumper which will offer a good option for recovery or any hitch-mounted accessories. However, I would just keep in mind that this is not intended for heavier towing situations. Now, right above the hitch here you're also going to have that Jeep logo which is going to add that stylish and elevated look.Now, this is made of a heavy-duty, 3/16-inch thick steel plate construction with a premium two-stage texture black powder coat finish on top. This kit will also be completely bolt on and everything that you need is going to be included in the kit, including all the hardware and again, a set of D-rings.Now, this is going to come in at roughly $525, putting this at a pretty average price point for a rear bumper. And I definitely think that you're getting your money's worth at this price point considering all the options that you're getting in here, including the recovery, the protection, and the style. Now, this is going to offer simple and straightforward, yet tough styling that really shines through here and that embossed Jeep logo is something that you don't see very often while also showing that this bumper is backed by that Jeep standard.Now, install will be a one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter, taking you about an hour to get the job done with some pretty basic hand tools. At this point, we can head over to the shop and check out a detailed breakdown of the install and what it looks like step by step. So, that's gonna wrap it up for me. Let's go ahead and get into it.Man 1: These are the tools that I use to remove the existing bumper, 3/4-inch sockets, 5/8-socket, 5/8-wrench, 3/4-wrench. I did some metal cleanup and re-spraying of the bumper reinforcement brackets that were installed on my Jeep originally. So, I used my 1/2-inch cordless drill with some wire brushes and also my cordless grinder with a flat disc just to clean up that metal, get it back to a more or less bare condition and then paint it so I wouldn't have any rust issues. I also used a 1/2-inch impact and 1/2-inch breaker bar just to make sure everything came loose without a whole lot of effort.Okay, this is my 2006 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited LJ. And when I bought it it had this, I believe, Smittybilt roof rack on it. I've already removed most of those parts. As you can see there's one bolt that's still holding the bracket in place. I believe the other bolt must have fallen out at this point. So, that's a 5/8-size bolt to remove there. And there are some bumper reinforcement brackets here. I may be leaving those in place. But there's 3/4-inch bolts along with a 3/4-inch bolt here on the bottom of the bumper. I'm using my impact gun to remove the bottom bolt and the two bolts here that are the bumper reinforcement. I may or may not be reusing that. I'll leave that bolt partially installed so the bumper doesn't fall on me. And the bumper reinforcement bracket is removed. Pretty rusty, I'll clean that up, right, put a little primer on it before I bolt everything back together.On the right-hand side now, using the impact. Again, I'll leave the bolt partially in there so the bumper doesn't fall on me. Removing the two bolts that were in place on this side for the roof rack that was previously removed. I'm using my 1/2-inch drive ratchet and impact sockets. If I can get at least enough to take out by hand, I will. The upper bolt, I cannot get a socket on it so I have to either remove the entire bolt using just a wrench. Fortunately, it's not excessively tight in place, and I can get the wrench in there to loosen this bolt. Unfortunately, the body mount is right in the way, and that prohibits any socket being able to be put on the bolt as well as the muffler. Very tight quarters.Okay, so I got the bracket removed for the roof rack, and I'm glad I left those bolts installed on the underside of the bumper. This is a very heavy bumper. And as soon as I removed the last threads on the bracket, it almost fell on my head. So I'm going to use some jack stands to support that bumper while I remove the bolt. And bolt two out. I have no idea what brand this bumper is but it is a very solid chunk of metal.Here we are cleaning up the frame reinforcement brackets that the bumper can be more securely fastened to that Jeep with. Not a requirement, but I'm going to reuse these because I do tend to help other Jeeps, pulling them, whatnot. So it's always a good way to make sure that your bumper is securely fastened directly to the frame, not just to the lightweight, thin steel crossmember at the back of the frame.So, I cleaned up the brackets pretty good, used wire wheel on it, and then a flap disc on my grinder. I cleaned up most of the chipped paint. Steel still pretty pitted from the rust that was on it but that's all right, going to use some self-etching primer, get these primed, and then we'll put a coat of black paint on them.You notice the frame has a little bit of pitting on it also. So we're just going to try to clean it up with a wire wheel. And then we'll throw a coat of paint on it quick. All right, we've cleaned up the metal as best we could. Little hard to get everything perfectly clean but I feel good about it. I'm gonna go and put some spray paint on here now just to kind of touch it up, reduce any additional rusting and just make it look better in general. Here we go. Trick with spray paint is start in one area, move horizontally or vertically and release. And that's it. And we'll just do little touchup on the driver's side as well to get everything a little bit nicer and a little cleaner.All right, so we are going to just put the bumper in place and just do a bit of a test fit to see what it looks like. There are four holes that need to be drilled. So right now we just want to get it lined up, kind of, see where everything lays out. And then we'll go and mark the holes that need to be drilled, use a punch to mark the metal for the drill holes to be drilled, and then drill out those holes. So right now we're just going to, kind of, fiddle around with things and see how it all lines up. We've got to come up.Man 2: Hold on.Man 1: There we go. Just wanted to stay in place. Got that off. Now we can go ahead and finish raising the bumper up into place and do our test fit. All right, we've got the bumper centered on the Jeep. Now I'm going to crawl underneath of it and mark the holes where we need to drill for the additional bolts.All right. We got to, kind of, eyeball the center of each one of the bolt holes here and do the best we can to make sure it's centered. Again, just eyeballing it and do a couple of pops like that. And then we should have two marks and I can just be able to see on the middle right there. We'll do that to the other side now. All right, here we are on the passenger side and we will try to eyeball and get it as close to the center in the opening as we can and make a couple of marks. The trick is if you move your punch, finding that mark the second time. Marks up in there. Here's one, there's the other. All right, now move the bumper out of the way and drill those out.All right, we're going to remove the bumper, check the marks that we made with the punch, and then start drilling four holes. [inaudible 00:10:56.018] All right. We've got two marks there and two marks here. I'll just double-check backside areas. No fuel tank or wires in the way there so we can go ahead and drill some holes. I'm just going to use my DeWalt drill with a step bit, light step bits, for fairly thinner metal like this. Each step is more than thick enough to reach all the way through. We definitely have the clearance on the underside of the existing frame rail so we'll just go ahead and drill some holes.One 1/2-inch hole drilled. Hole three drilled. And the fourth hole is drilled. And will this fit? It's perfect. One thing I like to do after doing any drilling in metal is immediately sweep up. So I'm going to clean up all this metal shavings from all over the floor and in the bumper and get that out of the way so I don't get those shavings in my fingers or track them into the house.All right, we're gonna go ahead and install the frame reinforcement bracket for the rear bumper. I'm going to use a little Loctite here on the bolts. There's a hidden fastener that's inside of the frame up in here. So it's a little tricky to get the bolts in. And definitely important to put some Loctite in there and make sure these things stay nice and secured. Don't be afraid to be a little generous with the Loctite. It's not going to hurt anything, it's only going to help in the long run.So, we're going to start with the upper bolt. Because again, this is a bit tricky to get the nut in the right place up inside the frame here and get the bracket lined up at the same time. I'll just get these in there finger-tight for now. Once we get the bumper installed in its final location, everything gets torqued down. Again, don't be afraid to be a little generous with the Loctite. Isn't gonna hurt anything, just make sure these will stay there for the long run. Got the passenger side installed, again, just loosely tightening everything by hand. And we'll go ahead and finish tightening everything up once we get all the other bolts in place. So, got the bumper back in position, we located our jack stands in advance so that we can just set the bumper on that. And now we'll go ahead and start putting the hardware in place.All right, here we are tightening up the bolts on the bumper, got everything lined up, everything fits in nicely. And now we'll just tighten everything down. That's the lower bolt. Get the upper bolt tightened up now. Just tightening up the bolts here on the outside at the frame bracket and then we'll tighten up those bolts as well. And this bolt requires the use of a wrench instead of a socket because the body mount is in the way. Let's go ahead and tighten down the frame bolts, let's switch some batteries around quick.Merideth: So, that's going to wrap it up for my review and the install of the Officially Licensed Jeep Trail Force HD Rear Bumper with the Jeep Logo fitting all 1987 to 2006 YJ and TJ Wranglers.
