FRONT BUMPER
(Refer to illustrations 12.5a and 12.5b)

1. Disconnect the electrical connectors at the fog lights, if equipped. Remove the grille (see Section 9).
2. If the fascia is being replaced, remove the pushpins to detach the fascia from the bumper. If both the fascia and bumper are being removed for other repair procedures, it is easier to remove them as an assembly (see Step 5).
3. Pull the fascia forward off the body. Note: In addition to the pushpins, on XTREME models the upper center of the fascia is secured with adhesive tape. Use a heat gun to soften the adhesive until you can separate the fascia with a large putty knife.
4. With an assistant supporting the impact bar (bumper), unbolt the impact bar from the frame and take it off (see illustrations).
5. Disconnect any wiring harnesses or any other components that would interfere with bumper removal and detach the bumper.
6. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Tighten the retaining bolts to the torque listed in this Chapter's Specifications. When reinstalling the fascia on XTREME models, clean off any adhesive with alcohol and use double-sided tape to secure the upper edge.
