they are under the bed and there are 6 of them. you can leave the tailgate if you want but it just makes the bed heavier if you are doing it manually. the bumper can stay but you can remove it if you might be worried about scratching the paint. make sure you get the bolts holding the filler neck to the bed also. i forget about the tail lights, i think you can just unplug them from the harness under the bed but i dont remember.

8 bolts, filler neck, unplug light harnesses, remove tailgate, and remove bumper so you dont scratch paint.
