So last week i got in an accident, and the bumper was pushed into my tire. I would like to take off the bumper so that i can still drive my truck while it is being fixed. Can somebody please post a link that says how to remove the bumper. Thank you

 

I can e-mail you a pdf file from my Ford service manual I have on CD.
Front or rear?
Drop me an e-mail.

 

sent you the email, just in case you didn't get it, its a 2005 F150 screw.

 

Removal and Installation

1. Remove the hood release retaining bolt.
2. Position aside the hood release assembly. Disconnect the hood release cable routing retainer.
3. Remove the 3 front bumper cover-to-front bumper bolts.
4. Remove the hood-over slam bumper bolts.
5. Remove the hood-over slam bumpers.
6. Remove the 3 air dam pin-type retainers.
7. If equipped, disconnect the fog lamp electrical connectors.
8. Remove the 4 bumper mounting bracket-to-front bumper nuts. To install, tighten to 115 Nm (85 lb-ft).
9. Remove the front bumper.
10. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Transfer components as necessary.

 

I sent you the same as above plus a few more pdf files.

 

Anybody think the upper bumper honeycomb crush stuff inside the upper bumper be removed and replaced without taking the entire front bumper off?

 

Could someone send me the pdf flies on how to take off a 2005 and 2006 front bumper?

 

sorry guys for bringing this thread back up, but same situation as the op. i have an 05 f150 and need the pdfs thats were supplied to him. thanks in advance

 

X2!

 

not that hard, basically behind the bumper you will have two rather large nuts to take off. Loosen those don't take them off.
Then open the hood and take out the 5 small bolts that are right there. one will have the latch that opens the hood. After those are out take out the other nuts and the bumper will slide right out.

This is how it was on my 06 not sure if it is different on 05's. But it is super easy

 

Would it be possible for someone to email me those pdf files as well? That would be outstanding. My dad got in an accident last week and I got the bumper off but I can't figure out exactly how to put it back on. Thanks in advance! My email is soundsofjb2@gmail.com

 

be possible for someone to send me that pdf file to ...got my bumper off to have it powder coated and want a good reference to put it back together...also where can i get the plastic pointed type nuts not sure what they are called but had to cut them off....or would it be just as easy just to use a regular bolt and nut to replace them?

 

I don't know if anyone has the pdf file anymore, but the post from i.ride.suzuki seems pretty clear.

The "plastic pointed type" nuts are probably trim screws. You can find a good assortment in ACE Hardware and also in automotive stores like Autozone or O'Reilly's. Failing that, you should be able to get them from a dealership.

The best place to get them from is a body shop. I've got handfuls of them for free. All I had to do was ask.
