Front bumper not aligned

[ksale29]

Anyone else find that their front bumper was lower by 2" on one side? I just realized today while washing my truck that the passenger side sits about 2" lower than the driver side. Guess I'll make a trip to the dealer. Look at the gap between the fender flair and the bumper.

Must have been a 4:50pm Friday build

My panel gaps aren't even, but that is ridiculously bad

Oh my god that is bad lol. I am sorry, should be easily corrected by the dealer though.

It's crazy that I have not noticed this until 2 months later lol

Made an appointment this morning, I was going to do it myself and after trying to break the bolts loose with my impact I figured let the dealer deal with it lol

Let the dealership handle it, relatively simple fix for them. But neither of my Rangers have the bumper issue.

Glad to hear that you haven't had this issue. They'll be able to work on it next Thursday, hopefully they won't hang on to it for to long lol

Local Ford dealership said they do not do body work and would have to send it off to be aligned. Said roughly 3 week turnaround so I went ahead and aligned it myself. Got it within roughly 3/8" from 1" 7/8 side to side and then left well enough alone. Big difference lol

Gesh! That is crazy it was going to take 3 weeks to get it fixed. I would have done it myself too.

 

[ksale29]

Yes, was ridiculous. Said they didn't have a body shop and would have to send it to another dealership. I removed the valance, and had direct access to the bumper bolts. 1 was tight and two were literally wiggling lol

Weird. I still see the variance. My fear is something else may be jacked up if you're bumper was loose and still crooked.

Everything was fine other than two out of the 3 bolts were so loose I could move them with my hand. Problem is, I didn't loosen both sides to adjust and there's still 3/8"difference between the two. I may another day work on it again but as for now I feel a lot better about it.
