Interesting. My 2013 Lariat seems to have the hitch connected to the bumper, so it's not quite the same as this one. When you unscrew only the top 2 bolts, I have to take off all 3. There is no separation.
Yeah this truck was set up weird. The more I tore into it the more I found odd things 😂 I think the hitch was added later because the truck didn’t have a tow package.
Well I bought what I thought was an OEM replacement bumper off of Ebay, but turns out it's meant for bumpers without the tow package. Definitely still some similarities but not the exact same. Thank you for your video! It was still very helpful. @@Poor_ManTruck
@@Poor_ManTruck I am doing the rear because it got banged up and now the plastic is breaking. The front is fine but I am sure the mismatch will bug me at some point.

Can you send the link where you purchsased the bumper? Thanks it looks great!
It is on American Trucks Website
I am doing the black rear bumper as well on a white truck with black trim...did you do the front bumper as well?
Makes it look much better! I did do the front as well. Got a used bumper off a black Fx4 model

Look great! Do you have a link for where you got the bumper? I'm looking to replace mine and I think black is the way I want to go. Thanks.

Can this bumper be color matched?
It is not chrome so I would say yes
Where were the washers?
Where are the lock washers
