Yep, that's all there is to it. And I let a u bolt fall over so I had to take the bumper off.

Hi all, I just got a set of front tow hooks (OEM/Mopar) for my '06 KJ, and I'm having a hard time inserting the U-bolts. I can't find any way to squeeze in anywhere big enough. Do I have to remove the bumper (maybe just the fascia)? The installation procedure included with the hooks shows a 2002-2004 KJ, which looks different than mine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Patrick |

Remove the bumper cover, it will give you more space to work. At least this is what I did in mine as I have chunky hands. To do so start by removing the grill, then the screws inside the turn signals and then pry off the plastic clips in the fender-well . |

Well, aren't I a bit embarrassed! Turns out that it's dead easy. Just feed the U-bolt through the hole into the frame and back out the other hole. No need to remove anything, although if you feed the U-bolt too high up it will topple into the frame and then you will definitely have to remove the bumper. |
