- 2016 Explorer Limited
I want to remove the front bumper on my wife's 2016 Explorer Limited. Every thread, document, and video I can find shows this to be a fairly straightforward affair. However, all of them feature a model earlier than 2016, which has a slightly different, and more difficult mounting system. And the one video I could find that discussed the 2016 merely mentioned these extra bolts, and provided no detail about how to access them. There are 3 bolts up high on each fender lip, with the bolt heads on the engine bay side only accessible from above. I spent two hours on this job on Sunday before aborting the mission. What's the trick?
