Front Bumper Removal

[yat74]

Ok, I have been sitting on CrisB's HD front bumper mounts for the winch platform. I too had an awkward and heavy pull a couple of months back and bent my bumper mounts forward about a 1/2 inch. Now comes the time to cut off the bent old ones and weld on the HD ones. I have the books that show the schematics but, I was wondering if one could remove the metal front bumper wthout removing the wheel wells. I know you have to remove the front two plastic bumper fascias and the upper slotted grill to get to the lower metal bumper brackets. Any suggestions or short cuts....I took the front end apart one other time a while back and it was a PIA to take apart and put back together. Please Help
