16. Remove the ABS wiring harness from the plastic retainer and unscrew the retainer counterclockwise (Fig.R).
17. Remove the two air bag sensors from the center of the bumper core by removing two T25 Torx bolts (Fig.S).
Note:
do
not unplug the air bag sensors — if the ignition is turned on while the sensors are unplugged, the air bag sensor light will
be triggered and will need to be reset by the dealer.
18. On each side, using a 12 point, 10mm socket, remove three bolts attaching the bumper core to the end of the frame
rail (Fig.T).
Note:
only two are shown in Figure T. The third is below the bumper core support.
19. Place the bumper core upside down on a workbench
area. Place the main receiver brace over the top of the
bumper core supports. Slide it forward until the main
receiver brace contacts the rear of the bumper core
(Fig.U).
Note:
when the main receiver brace is clamped to
the bumper core, only the lower end of the side mounting
points should be touching the rear of the bumper core.
There should be approximately a ½" gap at the top (Fig.V).
Clamp the main receiver brace to the bumper core
supports and clamp both to a workbench. Using a ½" drill
bit, and the pre-existing holes in the main receiver brace
as templates, drill through both sides of the bumper core
on each side (Fig.W — next page).
