Thanks for this video, cannot understand why they do not include instructions with the part when buying this, Great to have good people like you helping out, Thanks.
I replaced the rear bumper on my Silverado a couple weeks ago and I was kind of stumped on the spare tire hoist cap so I had left it in my old bumper. 5 minutes after finding your video I had it out and got it all figured out now. All I need to do is buy a new retaining ring kit and it will be on the new bumper. You made a very helpful video.
Thanks for showing us this. I just bought a new off road bumper and had no idea how to get the old tube off and replace it. I did what you did and just bought a whole new kit. It was so rusted out that it just snapped in half. Thanks again for this it was a huge help.
Thanks. Glad I found this video I ordered a new hoist cover from Amazon after replacing my bumper but the clips was not included and had no idea how to install. Now I’m ordering the clips. Thanks so much
I wish I had seen your video before I removed mine! With all of the strong language I used, I ruined my chances of ever reaching heaven! I have been wondering how I would install the new one. Thank you very much for sharing. Kind regards,
Thank You so much Tony S. more than helpful & as several had mentioned I wish I had watched this before removing the old one! Lesson learned thanks again🚚.
Excellent! Buying that kit today in anticipation of working on a rust belt SUV. I know that thing is going to be toast if it's anything like the bumper face which is barely hanging on.
Sorry, im not sure what your talking about hanging. The only electrical things on the rear bumper are the lights that goes into the license plate area and the hook up for a trailer hitch
I learned it by mistake after the dealer wanted $130 to ONLY look at it. Went home & played w my no instructions and accidently figured it out. Lol. They should be ashame to make a thing w no instructions
Thanks for the video! 👍 Bunch of videos out about how to remove the obvious bumper bolts, but nothing about this pain in the neck. What a dumb design, they could have held it with a couple of screes.... GM..... Biggest hassle changing the bumper is that silly setup. Great job on video,
Hi Is the ring set installed correctly and was the black tube damaged during removal or did u order a new tube? After installing the ring set. You should be able to tap the door from outside the vehicle forcing it to lock into the ring. You must apply force to lock the tube into the ring set
Remember the fat part at the end of the tube that grabs the hole from the outside of the bumper door must be forced threw the hole to lock into the teeth of the ring. Not sure exactly what u mean by the tube wont go threw?
removed mine to install in a service bed. you sure made removing that inner ring look easy.. mine? not so much. Came off looking like it was from West Virginia... missing & bent teeth
Hi Go back the the video. Once u have the 1 part installed correctly into the bumper hole. Sometimes u have to really push hard until the center ring with the teeth locks into place. Make sure you are installing it in the right direction. Let me know how it goes
Wow, automotive engineers should be shot, Two SS screws would have done the job for less and way easier. Great to know this, just too bad I didn't see this beforehand as no one has this ring in stock. So much for best-laid-out plans for the day... LOL thanks for sharing this, funny how this isn't an up front known hic-up.
Hi. I agree w you fully. The dealer wanted $120 to tell me how to install it. I went home & honestly spent 2 days trying to figure out the ring etc until i got it right. Surely a poor design
Thanks for this video, cannot understand why they do not include instructions with the part when buying this, Great to have good people like you helping out, Thanks.

Excellent! Buying that kit today in anticipation of working on a rust belt SUV. I know that thing is going to be toast if it's anything like the bumper face which is barely hanging on.

Thank you for posting this. It's just what I needed
Np, thanks for watching
Great video. Thank you for posting this.
One question….what’s that switch for I see wired in there?
U mean the light bulb for the bumper or the trailer hitch. The only things back there. The door has nothing electrical posted to it
Thanks for watching
@@madetohelpyou at2:23 the video centers on it hanging next to the spare tire tube…..looks like an old gm toggle switch
Sorry, im not sure what your talking about hanging. The only electrical things on the rear bumper are the lights that goes into the license plate area and the hook up for a trailer hitch
Hell yeah thanks man nice quick easy video!!!
Np, thanks for watching
Thank you very much, Tony.
No problem. Trying to help us save $$ & time
Yeaah baaaaby! I can do this! Thanks for the easy to follow how to!!
Np. Be careful as the ring with the teeth often break. U can find new one if needed on ebay, amazon and online by using google
Thanks only person to probably show a video I wanted to know what tools I would need t for a customer I got but I guess it’s not much thanks you
Np, thanks for watching
Thanks a lot!!
My question is, how the heck did this happen to begin with???
I learned it by mistake after the dealer wanted $130 to ONLY look at it. Went home & played w my no instructions and accidently figured it out. Lol. They should be ashame to make a thing w no instructions
thank you! i really appreciate your videos 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

They could have made this thing with a twist lock like pvc plumbing
I agree buddy. We would surely be better engineers. Lol

You can check ebay, amazon or just google the description and see if anyone has it online
Or one bolt in the center of the wheel to hold it in place, much simpler design.
How’s you get that inner guide tube out?
Just like in the video
Very helpful, thank you!
Np, thanks for watching
Thank you Sir!!
Np, trying to help us all save $$ and not get ripped off, the dealer wanted $130 to look at truck. Lmao
