[QUOTE="Jeffksf B, post: 556606, member: 65145"] [i]Look underneath. You may be able to just loosen the mounting bolts and re position it back to normal. Mine did this once when I saw it bent down in a parking lot. Just lay on your back, loosen, lift, and tighten. There's 2 on the left and 2 on the right. Hope it works for ya.[/i] Just wanna bump this up, pretty good tip it worked for me tonight after someone backed into a light pole:wacko: I also had to drop the spare tire to give me a little more room, also unbolted the piece that makes up the bumper hitch so I could use a large pipe wrench to bend those brackets back into place. I was very thankful for mi Ingersoll Rand air impact though. The bumper bolts seem to be lock nuts, or all the rust made them that way:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
