Hi everyone after much research on the net and very little results, i went to the wreckers and finally worked out how to remove the rear bumper from the Toyota tarago/previa
This is how you remove a rear bumper from 1990-2000 Toyota tarago or previas and maybe even the 2001-2013 models.
There are two upper 10mm corner bolts under the mud guards or wheel arches that secure the ends of the upper corner bumper onto the body, remove the left and right one and store bolts in a container to reattach.
Next there are two 10mm bolts on the lower corner of the bumper connected to a rail that is secured to the bottom of the floor pan of the van, remove the left and right one and store in your container (please note sometimes the 10mm rail bolts are difficult to remove, so remove the 12mm bolts that are connected from the rail to the floor pan instead.
Some taragos/previas have a bull bar with a tow bar attached and some models may not, the bull bar is attached to brackets by 6 X 18 mm bolts 3 x 18 on the left and 3 X 18mm bolts on the right and the brackets are secured to the floor pan by 6 X 14mm bolts 2 X 14mm bolts on the left and 2 x 14mm bolts on the right are secured to the floor pan and 2 x 14mm bolts are secured to the reinforcement bar which the plastic bumper is attached too.
If you have a bull bar attached to the brackets, it is recommended that you remove these 6 X 18mm bolts securing your bull bar to the brackets first, because if you remove the 6 X 14mm bracket bolts with the bull bar still attached you may injure your self when the bull bar drops down with the brackets.
These are the last 6 X 14mm bolts that have to be removed, 4 x 14mm bolts secure the 2 brackets to the floor pan, 2 X 14mm bolts are on the left and 2 X 14mm bolts are on the right, the last 2 X 14mm bolts are secured to the reinforcement bar, they are the last 2 bolts to be removed, and then the plastic bumper which is attached to the reinforcement bar will simply slide out towards you as you pull on it, then you can remove the plastic bumper from the reinforcement bar.
Dont forget the trailer plug is also attached to the bull bar or tow bar and will have to be removed or cut and reattached.
Once the reinforcement bar with the plastic bumper is out, you will be able to access the lower bumpers 2 X 10mm center bolts and 2 X 12mm corner lower bumper bolts and then the 6 x 10mm upper bumper bolts, two of the bolts you couldn't see or access when you were desperately trying to find them and keep wondering why the bumper wouldn't come off.
Finally store the foam between the bumper and reinforcement bar in a secure place and try not to forget them once your ready to reassemble everything like i did.
Enjoy, another mystery solved.

Feck off big hammer!
Twist, hard!
there are 4 bolts holding that bumper in place. 2 are accessible through the bumper itself, you may have to remove two square covers depending on the type of bumper. the other 2 are hidden behind the bumper turn signal lights, to remove the lights, you have to look under the light with a flash light and look for the screw holding that light in place.
