I do, but you do not need it to remove the bumper. Have done it plenty of times. Just a 14mm socket and ratchet.
Or was it a 15mm....16mm?
But either way, it's not difficult. What are you installing the nut strips for?

looking at the FSM, it doesn't say to remover that plastic strip. But if it helps pulling that bia off, I just might do it and throw it away.

what music should I listen to when I'm pulling off the bumper? Eye of the Tiger just doesn't do it for me anymore and I don't think C+C Music Factory has what it takes to get me through. I'm putting on that tow bar so I can have a place that someone can pull me out from behind. NH

maybe there is another way to remove the bumper. I just yanked the trim piece it off and it will not be going back on. You don't need the wobbler but tools will make life easier. I hate to fight with stuff. I used the deep socket for the bottom bolts and the wobbler, extension, and shallow socket for the top two.

It is easier to do with a lending hand, but you can do it yourself. Take bumper off, place nut strips in frame rail, put bumper back on, then bolt up trailer hitch.
