Help Removing 89 Front Bumper (pics)

[shadowlurker]

Hey, im having a bit of a difficulty locating all of the bolts needed to take off the front bumper off of an 89. Ive searched around and gathered some information. I know I need to take the blinkers off and the grill pieces. But where are the bolts located for those and the fog lights? Im having some difficulties with those. I have pictures and if someone could possible just tell me what bolts i need to take off that would be great. Or even better just take them into paint and circle them. Thanks in advance.

I have all of these bolts off also.

I have the one off the inner fender also.

How do i get to these bolts?

I havent removed these yet but i know i have to remove them still.

Which of these bolts do i have to remove?

remove the grill first, it's easy somewhat, i had a fight with the one on the right but the left one should be easy! to remove and there are two bolts that hold the bumper after you remove the grill.

There are so many hidden bolts that hold the bumper, i was planning on removing it to fix something and i just gave up after 3 hours trying to find bolts.... Toyota built a damn titanic!

I laugh when I hear folks strugging to take the bumper off, took me 30 minutes to get it off, and I didn't know what the hell I was doing..

pretty much just unbolt what you see, and tug on it, where it's tight, look for a bolt and there you go..

My only problem is i dont want to unbolt something i dont need to unbolt then have it break off like half the other bolts lol. I was at about 50% on the bottom lip.

You're doing it the hard way. I've always found it much easier to just remove the two large nuts/bolts holding the bumper support on, unbolt the bumper from the fenders, lower corner brackets, and grills/center nose support bolts, then pull the whole thing off. Five minute job if it's not rusted on or in an accident.

Where exactly are those big bolts your talking about? You mean the two obvious big ass bolts down there right?

Yep, the two big ass bolts on the frame rails...

After it's off the car if you want to mess with all that stuff you can...
