Has anyone replaced the front bumper? I just did the rear. Piece of cake. Not sure where to begin.

It's been almost a year since I replaced my bumper with @FirstGenVol's old one.

If I recall correctly... the skid plate, and the plastic splash guards have to come off the bottom. There's two 13 or 14 mm nuts that are near the top outer corners of the bumper on the inside of the fender.

Side brackets that mount on the frame.

I can't remember much else....

 

If you did the rear, I'm sure you won't have any trouble with the front. Take Noah's advice in the post above mine. It's very easy to remove and replace assuming you don't have a bunch of rust to fight.

 

@Tundra2 pretty much shows everything you need to do just quickly scrolling through his video of it.

The toughest part would be getting the 10mm nuts\screws?? off the bracket that secures to the back of the front bumper; they’ll easily break if rusted. I used a simple propane torch to break it free.

 

Did mine twice so far. Too many Deer here, but not as many as there used to be.
The part to keep in mind here is the corner bumper clips with the rubber bushings... Attach them to the bumper FIRST, then attach the bumper to the truck.
They are next to impossible to attach after the bumper is in place.

 

Yes, this. 100% agree. Wished I could have remembered those details on my original replies.
