so I had to replace my f150 bumper last weekend. man, it was a little tricky but not too bad. first, I just jacked up the front, cause you need space to wiggle it out. then there’s like 8 bolts holding it on, and I thought I’d never find the right wrench.
but once I got my hands dirty, it was kinda fun. anyone else ever done this? just remember to disconnect the lights first, or you’ll look like a total noob. anyway, if I can do it, so can you. just don’t forget to wear gloves, trust me, it’s a mess
I ve had my F150 for years and when I smashed the bumper in a tiny fender bender in Wisconsin I thought it was the end of my DIY dreams. But honestly replacing it was easier than finding a good place to eat in a small town. Just some basic tools and a little patience and you’ll be good to go.
YouTube is a lifesaver. Just watch a few videos and it feels like you have a friend guiding you through it all.
I ve done it myself it was actually easier than I thought just needed a few basic tools. I remember doing it in my driveway in summer sun was crazy but felt rewarding.
I ve replaced my f150 bumper before suppose it was easy enough just need the right tools and a buddy to help out.
I was in Texas and it was hotter than a grill after a cookout. The trick is to have a socket wrench set and maybe some extra clips since they love to break.
After that just watch a couple of YouTube videos you’ll be golden.

Ive done a bumper swap on my F150 in my garage in Ohio last summer. it was pretty straightforward surprisingly
Just took off a few bolts and the old one popped right off then like magic I put the new one on. definitely have a socket wrench and a friend around though cause it can be a bit heavy
My advice just watch a few YouTube vids for the specific year model since they can vary a lot
Replacing the f150 bumper isn’t as hard as it sounds I did mine in my driveway in Ohio last summer took about two hours
Just grab some tools and follow a YT video it’s really just bolts and clips I think I made more trips to get tools than actual work
Not sure it’s easier than getting a shop to do it but it’s satisfying

Definitely save some cash doing it yourself though
