I was just about finished putting on a towbar on my 95 Landy Disco when I was stopped with 2 mounting bolts, It turns out I have to remove the rear bumper bar to get my hand and bolt down inside the chassy on each side to complete the tow bar mounting. I have to remove it anyway but I did a search on the CD Manual and could not find instructions on it's removal so can anyone tell me how many bolt's and a spanner or socket size that is required to remove the bolts.

Take end caps off
undo the 2 bolts that hold it to the chassis and it should drop off.Cheers Brett

Just 2 bolts, you don't need to take the end caps off.

I was just going to ask how you get the end caps off. But still what is the required sockett or spanner size to use.

end caps 1/2 inch and the two main bolts I think are 5/8, I cant find mine at the moment but the end caps are definately half inch

I got around to taking the rear bumper off I used a 17mm socket for the 2 main bolts and I used a 14mm socket to remove the end caps so i could get a look at them as they were crooked on each side. I finnished the towbar mounting points but had to get a crow bar to bend up a plate inside the chassy so I could tighten the bolts. I also found that the rear bumper bolts were loose.
Thanks for your help guys. :D
