2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Sagging front bumper cover

[CCahill]

I've searched the forums, till I'm blue in the face... I saw this post once before... I'm sure... In any case, my front bumper cover is sagging like crazy... almost at an angle... big gap at fender/bumper interface... tried moving the end brackets, but nothing... looks like poo !!! Any help ?

Thanks in advance... .

All of the second generations trucks have this problem. I fixed my bumper by replacing it with a bumper from Brown Welding and Fabrication ($750). After market bumpers look great on 4x4's if they fit in the budget.

I’ve had three 2<SUP>nd</SUP> Gen. Dodges, if I’m reading your post correctly, all have had this problem from the day they were new. I had the dealer fix the first. One I lived with, and one a buddy and I worked with until we got it as right as we could. It definitely takes more than one set of hands. Basically, we just loosened, moved, & tightened until we evened out the gaps. It was a pain. As we decreased the gaps at the sides, the one between the bumper & grill increased. The best we were ever able to achieve was a balance, but it was better that what we started with. Good luck!
