I am going to pull my factory front bumper off tomorrow and it looks to be attached with some large torx...........what size is this??  Where is the best place to get a torx to remove these?

I think i got mine from sears.  Get the black one over with the impact drivers (not air impacts, the percussion type), or prep the threads with a liberal amount of PB Blaster the night before you try.  Good luck, they're a beyotch.

All I can say is that it sucks to be you. Mine were a whore to get loose.
Once in a while that perfect part rolls around that the redneck craftsman sees and goes, "this would be just perfect as a ________."

there are times when it comes in handy to have 280 lbs. to put behind something...........this was one of those times.  they were on tight but not bad at all to bust loose.

LOL, nice, mine hadn't been touched since it rolled off the line in Aug. of '87, and it took my fat arse, a 3# ball-peen hammer, an impact, and about 2 hours to get mine out.

what you need to do is send the wife/girlfriend to O'rielly's and the guys there will end up doing it for you.
