That would be awesome but it ain’t gonna work either.

So, 5 bolts when you want to hit the dirt? I get what you're doing, and for those who won't go off road it's fine. Just sayin', most of us that will actually go off road won't stop to unbolt the front license plate. Heck, we're spending thousands to not have to disconnect the sway bar.Yes. There are 3 bolts attaching to J nuts on the bumper. The 2 bolts attaching the tag will need to be removed to access the 3 bumper bolts.
Been driving my modded Jeep as long as I've owned it with no front plate, in CA. No issues.There actually aren't any predrilled holes... At least with the modular bumper.
Im definitely requesting that my dealer doesn't mount my front plate!
Already brought up numerous times earlier in the thread. I merely posted that there are other choices for a front plate, not that they'd work or not.That would be awesome but it ain’t gonna work either.

Depends on where you live. My town I never had issues. Parked in SF on the street, meter paid, but I was the first car at the corner so you could see I didn't have a plate. Got a ticket. Fix it ticket but I still had a $125 fine. FYI...drove that car to SF many, many times with no issues.Been driving my modded Jeep as long as I've owned it with no front plate, in CA. No issues.
Jeeps seem to get a pass on everything. WA tire coverage laws are strict yet there's Jeeps running around on full width 1 tons and no flares. Meanwhile in my Fords I've been stopped for no mud flaps and 1/2" of tire poke.Been driving my modded Jeep as long as I've owned it with no front plate, in CA. No issues.
@Vantcrst, same thing in Illinois.No choice in CA. My plan is to run with no plate until I get pulled over but want to have the bracket on hand when that happens.

Live in PA and drive without doors and see what happens. I understand some counties are more doorless friendly than others though.Jeeps seem to get a pass on everything.
I'm gonna pass on that. I'm enjoying being door-free.Live in PA and drive without doors and see what happens. I understand some counties are more doorless friendly than others though.
There’s a law about having mud flaps? Didn’t know that was even a thing.Jeeps seem to get a pass on everything. WA tire coverage laws are strict yet there's Jeeps running around on full width 1 tons and no flares. Meanwhile in my Fords I've been stopped for no mud flaps and 1/2" of tire poke.
Not specifically mud flaps, but the tire has to be covered front to back to a certain point and mud flaps is just how you get there when the body doesn't any more. It could vary state to state.There’s a law about having mud flaps? Didn’t know that was even a thing.

Which does make sense given how much money is wasted on windshields that wouldn’t otherwise need to be replaced every yearNot specifically mud flaps, but the tire has to be covered front to back to a certain point and mud flaps is just how you get there when the body doesn't any more.

As the OP said T40, but Ford being Ford they included T30 and T50 for the other bolts around the vehicle…but, not T40.I should know the answer to my question but obviously I don't. Not a tool guy!
What tool, what size do I need to remove the modular bumper Bronco bolts? And does the tool come with the vehicle or do I need to go out and buy it?
Thanks!
