Bumper Problem

[jerseyboy15]

This past week I was in a minor accident where the drivers side of my front bumper hit against a barrier and got pushed in far enough where is touching my drivers side front tire when I make a right turn. I can't really drive it, and don't want to pay $$$$ for towing for a small issue. I've tried bending it more in or out so it doesn't touch the tires, but I've had no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use, or is it easier to remove the bumper, and if so how, and will I have any problems with the fog lights and airbags.

the red neck way to do it is to tie a rope to the bumper end and then to a tree and back up GENTLY.

OR you can remove the bumper by removeing four 18mm nuts.

best bet is to take it off and hit it with the sledge a few times, it shouldnt take u more than an hour to fix that. or you could try chaining one end of the truck to a tree and using a come along to pull the bumper towards another tree

Remove screws?

Just do what Paul Senior and Paul Junior did a few years ago on American Chopper. just tie a rope to the bumper and attach the other end of the rope to a big truck and gently or agressively as they did rip the bumper off.
