Uneven bumper?

[Darrow]

Hello all! Looking for some insight on this. Noticed when I was cleaning my 23 Wildtrak that there is more of a gap between the bumper and the body on the passenger side than the driver side. I can fit my whole hand on one side but not the other. Tried it on level ground to see if it was cus of the suspension but its just always like that.

I am still waiting for my Bronco so cant answer your question. I do have a question though, where did you get the lights for the grille from?

It’s literally a 5-10 minute fix if you want to do it yourself. Just pop off the plastic covers around the tow hooks, and you’ll see the bolts that hold the bumper on. Loosen them, adjust the bumper, and retighten. Mine was off too, so I fixed it as described.

Awesome thank you! I’ve been wanting to do this so I can relocate the damned front tag anyways. Can’t Believe they drill right into the bumper to put these on. Thanks new york.

Yep my badlands is the same way. Glad to see it’s a simple fix

A trim tool, and a 15mm or 17mm socket on a 3/4” drive. I can’t recall which socket off hand…

The Parking sensor wires seem… delicate… thread/pull them out of their home gently

But what you can also try, stand on the corner of the bumper by the tire on the high side. Sometimes you’ll feel the bumper “sit down”. The setup has both vertical and horizontal play. On installation you can think you’ve got it set all the way down/or up… but it doesn’t match until you get some weight/oomph behind it
