I loosened all of them except the funky looking lock right in the middle. It looks like it takes a huge star socket and I don't have one like that. Maybe a big pair of channel locks would turn, but I'd hate to get it unlocked and not be able to lock it again.
I have one, but the collision wasn't strong enough to trigger the G sensor to start recording. I have it set to 4g's. Anything less and it'll turn on when the wind rocks the truck.
Bumped at the truck stop.

2°picture
There are 2 bolts ,one with the head above otherone with it's at the bottom,they are pointing to each other.probally 13 milimiter wrench.
Loosen those.
Put your jack against chassisbeam,a piece off wood against the side steel part off the bumper.
GENTLY push the side till it is level with the fender,from the picture i guess about 1/3 inch.
Tightend the 2 bolts again.
Take away jack.
Should be good.
If in doubt,STOP and ask more info.flightwatch Thanks this. -

Can you take the plastic corner off? If so you could use washer to make it look straight and not worry about bracket
flightwatch Thanks this. -

I did what you said and I cracked the bumper in half...
Just kidding. Worked like a charm. And actually, when you loosen those two bolts, the bumper rotates freely along that axis very easily...so no need at all for a jack. Took less than a minute to fix.
