Some jerk ran into my Ram in a parking lot and drove off without leaving a note or anything. The rear bumper is dented a bit, so I'm going to replace it with this one from Summit. This bumper is a black version of the OEM one and comes with new brackets, just in case the stock ones are bent. (But I think the stock brackets are fine.)

How difficult is it to remove and replace the rear bumper? I looked underneath the truck, and it appears that it's held on with four large bolts on each side. Is this correct?

Yup, hope u have an impact or a torch to heat the bolts cause they may give u a bit of a fight comming out. Make sure u unplug the wires for the lights befor u unbolt so ur not hanging the bumper by the wires.

Saturate the bolts with liquid wrench every day for a week. They'll come off without a torch or an impact wrench. That's been my experience.

It would suck just getting older, without getting wiser.

That's a really good idea. Thanks!
