Today, the rear bumper arrived for the Jeep. Terry and I spent the afternoon starting the install. We removed the original back bumper without much of an issue. I had a custom made skid plate covering the gas tank that we had to remove and will have to get it custom fitted again once the new bumper is on the Jeep. We hit our first issue when trying to remove the factory tow hitch. There are two screws that we have to remove, but there isn't much room between them and the gas tank. I am just praying we won't have to drop the gas tank.

The new vs. the old
The three impossible bolts. The gas tank is in the top of the photo and the hitch receiver is pictured in the bottom of the picture. The bolts are hex head, so we can't even get a wrench around them. Any ideas??
