Just picked up my new bumper, there are a ton of little parts and bolts and such. Unfortunately there isnt a manual or even a piece of paper with instructions and so far havent been able to find a youtube video that might help. Is the install SO SIMPLE it doesnt need instructions? I think I can handle it but would be nice to have some instructions if I get stuck.

Both Extreme and Quadratec only have vids and info for the JK, hopefully when I tackle this thing tomorrow it kind of explains itself.

If you prefer instructions, contact Smittybilt and I'm sure they'll send a copy of it to you.

Put it on last nite! Was about a half hour to remove the stocker, as said on here before kind of a pain to get the wire harness off. I did all of it by myself on my lift, as I said there were no instructions that came with it. It weighs 115 lbs and my biggest worry was that it would fall off the mounts while I was practically standing on my head trying to get the bolts started. All in all I only hurt myself once and I think I took the lords name in vain a couple of times. Not a bad install and I think it looks GREAT!

Very nice. I had this bumper on my JK. By far my favorite. I’ll be getting this on the JL as soon as I’m able. Good job!

I just installed this bumper on my jeep this past week. I didn't see instructions either but they were actually taped on the outside of the box.

I might take back what I said about it being the same as JK and them just slapping different stickers on boxes. I just watch a video on YouTube where a guy was installing one on a JK and it was slightly different.
