Not to hard just take out the screws inside the lift gate area and pull the push pins things under the bumper. And give it a good pull. And off it is.. oh yeah. And remove the screws in the Inner fender well. For mine I had to take the tire off to get in there.

on my '95 all you have to do is pull up the black plastic strip on top of the bumper and un-bolt the fender liners. Then pull straight back. I don't recall there being any screws inside the liftgate on mine.

...or you can keep snagging it on rocks like my buddy with the '96 does every time he goes wheelin', LOL
