Finally got around to installing some take off rubicon bed sliders. Also installed the passenger side rear tow hook. The tow hook was the major pain in the @$$ trying to get the bevel in the bumper. If I were to do it over again I would just cut a hole in the panel on the passenger side. Cheers!

I started to take the bumper apart, and after f-ing with it for a half hour, I got out the roto-zip and cut a hole. Looks fine.

Really easy. Just had to cut out a notch in the lower corner of the bumper. I used a cardboard template to help mark where to cut. Used a razor blade.

I didn't even know these existed. I just ordered a pair. This will probably be on my top ten list of mods. Thanks very much for the comment.

Redrock 4x4 makes a legit bed slider I'm probably going with. Normally I don't really go with their stuff but they seem good and have great reviews.

After looking at what was involved with taking the rear bumper apart I cut mine and installed the hook.
