front bumper removal

Does anyone have any how to or instructions on how to remove the chrome bumper on an 07 ram 1500

These are instructions to install tow hooks which show how to remove the bumper. It doesn't show the fog light removal. It's been a while since I took my SLT bumper off and added a sport bumper but remember that it was fairly easy. I did it by myself, just support the bumper when taking off the last nut so it doesn't fall off. I did not disconnect the battery although I've read that some have done that to be sure they don't set off an airbag.

The electrical connector is on the drivers side. There's only three 10mm bolts for the driving lights. I think that the bumper bolts are 18mm or 19mm, I can't remember off hand but it's one of those two and that should be all you need.

Use some penetrating oil on them and let it soak in. I've used wd40 specialist rust release penetrant spray with great results. That's using hand tools.
