Thanks! I'm a new owner of a 2013 JKU and my new grill came today and I'm putting it on tomorrow.
That is awesome! Great Jeep! I have other videos on the channel that may help with your JK. Check it out. There is also a Jeep community on Twitter. Thank you for watching! 😎✌🏼
When re-installing it, pay attention to the lower plastic pin that is located between (centered) all the lower clips, this helps you align the grill when reinstalling it.
Thanks for the tip
Your welcome. Thank you for watching.
I just watched your video and then went into my garage and changed the grill on my wife’s jeep, all in a span of 15 minutes. Thank you for the video
Awesome! Thank you for watching our channel.
Very helpful. About to change my grille to a shark grille on my 2013 JKU. Thanks.
Glad it helped! Very cool. Thank you for watching!! 😎✌🏼

Thank you! I am glad it was helpful. Thank you for watching our channel. We will have some new videos uploaded soon.
Thank you sir for making that film. Most informative most helpful!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful video! My daughter just bought a JK but she doesn't like the "frowny face" grill that the previous owner had installed. So I'll be installing a new grill for her this weekend. I appreciate the easy to follow instructions. 🤙🏻
That’s awesome. I know she will love her Jeep. Don’t throw it away, you can sell that grille you replaced. Thank you for watching our channel. My daughter has a video on this channel about changing the oil on her JK.
Great video! Probably saved me a headache and a few broken clips when I upgraded my grill inserts and added headlight shields. I appreciate the good camera angles and step by step examples. Subscribed! Thanks again.
I am glad the video helped you! Thank you for watching and THANK YOU for subscribing.
Great info.
Thanks for watching! Happy it helped. Have an awesome day!
Thank you, very helpful. Got my new inserts installed in a breeze 👍
Glad it helped. Thank you for watching.
Thank you for the video, I just bought some new headlights and wanted to know how to remove the grill.
Awesome! Thank you for watching!! ✌🏼
Finally just got a color matched grill for my JKUR that I’m swapping today. Great quick instructions 🤙🏼
Thank you for watching! I am glad it helped. 😎✌🏼
That was awesome, thank you sir!! I bought a used 09 JKU with 82K miles that turned out to have a white Vinyl wrap on it. The black paint underneath is perfect! I wanted a black jeep 6sp manual but "settled" for the white 6sp and found out later after working on a few things that it was indeed my Black Betty under all that nasty wrap!
Wow! That is amazing! AND Thank you for watching our channel!
@@JohnsJeepGarage It was my pleasure! You really helped me!
I thought I was the only person with a couch holding jeep parts in a garage
Ha ha! 😃✌🏼 Thank you for watching!
Straightforward and to the point, thank you.

Thank you
You're welcome and thank you for watching our channel. We will have more videos uploaded soon.
Thanks John, I need to do this to install the screws for headlight adjustment.
You should be able to access the adjustment screws with a long handle torx wrench (star drive) from Harbor Freight (example). So you should see the access grove to the 2 screws without having to remove the front grill. It is easier to access with the grill removed but you it was designed to do without removing the grill if you are only adjusting the headlight. If you are removing them, then you have to remove the front grill. This link is an example of the wrench / tool.

@@JohnsJeepGarage I'm doing the Mode to add 2 additional screws so there are 2 for each light instead of just the single screw
Awesome!
Muchas gracias 🙏🏻
Thank you for watching! ✌🏼
Perfect thanks so much for this! Short into the point. I just want to put some black rust paint on that bar in front of the radiator and I wasn’t sure how the grill came out. Appreciate it!
Awesome! I did the same thing. I think my Rust-Oleum black paint I put on that bar has lasted longer than any OEM factory paint ever has. It is funny how that is the first to show rust. I am glad it helped.
@@JohnsJeepGarage Yea I just got it about a month ago and that rust really bothers me lol. The underside is very clean and rust free so I want to take care of that. I was looking at getting the metal inner fender liners but my OEM liners have plastic pop rivets holding them in. Have you ever made a video on how to remove those?
I definitely have replaced them but have not made a video on it. The reason is there are so many options for inner fenders and different installations. I didn't think about separating the video from how to remove the OEM inner fender as a single video but now you have given me a great idea for a new video.
@@JohnsJeepGarage Gotcha, that makes perfect sense to me! Yeah I am pretty savvy at working on vehicles and normally would have no issues with this but I’ve never had a vehicle with pop riveted inner fender liners. Just wasn’t sure what the best way to go about removing them was. Would love to see a video if you ever have time!
Thank you. I searched RUclips and only found the fender well removals.
Thanks John!

Great video, thank you.
Thank you for your feedback!
Great and simple explanation. Thank you. Also, what front bumper is that? Looks great and solid protection for the front end.
Thank you.
Bumper from Extreme Terrain. The link is the following:www.extremeterrain.com/barricade-front-bumper-j20850.html
Good Video and to the point.
Question…. What brand front bumper is that ?
Thank you for watching. It is a Barricade front bumper. Look at this link at the different styles.

thank you for your vid iit was easy to replace, by the way - is there any mesh you mount in as protection for the cooler
I do not. But there may be grille inserts that have this. New mods always being discovered.
Thank you for the quick and thorough explanation! Where did you get those silver grille inserts? The ones in each opening and headlight area
They came with the Jeep. It may have come with the Sahara package but I truly never noticed the difference until you pointed it out. It is not an insert but a 2 tone color on the grill.
Bravo Zulu! AKA Thanks, man.
Any time!
hey john what brand is that bumper on the white JK you are working on in this video of removing the grill
www.extremeterrain.com/barricade-front-bumper-j20850.html
A full width bumper with a economical price. Let me know if the link does not work.
Find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Parler. I usually get direct messages on Facebook or Twitter. Thank you. I appreciate you watching our channel.
Where can I get those door handles I saw at the end!?
If you are talking about the pan handles on the black doors for the 1998 Jeep Wrangler TJ, I can purchase different pan handles on Quadratec.com, Morris 4x4 and Extreme Terrain. I have a video on our channel "How to replace Jeep Wrangler TJ Door Handles" and there is a reference to specific black ones I purchased to replace the current rusty / chrome plated ones. Remember, there is a handle for the driver's side and passenger side. Otherwords, contact me through John's Jeep Garage on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook and I will reply directly to you.
what are the name of those headlights they look great
I apologize but don't remember. I replaced them with Xprite 7" Bluetooth RGB LED Headlights because they have the Halo Ring DRL and Turn Signal function. They have 90W 9600 Lumens Hi/Lo Round Headlamps.
I will go back to see what I purchased and update this reply. For now I can only tell you what I currently have on them.
@@JohnsJeepGarage thanks
What front bumper is on the white jeep?
One of the Barricade Front Bumpers at Extreme Terrain... I now have an XRC Stubby on it. Here is the link to find one like in the picture.
