Begin by applying the parking brake, raising the vehicle, and securely supporting it on jackstands. Disconnect the negative battery cable followed by the positive battery cable, then wait two minutes before proceeding. For the front bumper on Pick-up and Expedition models, work under the vehicle to disconnect the fog light electrical connections if equipped, and release the pushpins securing the lower air deflector panel for access to the fog light connectors. From the backside of the bumper, remove the retaining bolts securing the bumper brackets to each frame rail, then remove the bumper. For installation, reverse the removal steps.
