98 Expy Bumper slipped

Along the same line of questions, the front bumper of my Expy has slipped on the passenger side. The gap on the driver side is one inch, while the gap on the passenger side is 2-3 inches. How would I go at lifting the passenger side back up to get the 1 inch gap? Does anyone have a diagram of the bolts that need to be loosened to lift the bumper?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. It does just not look right!

Thanks,

SemperFi,

Thanks for helping me. I e-mailed you my e-mail address. Do you know if these bumpers slip over time? It does not look like there was an impact damage.

SemperFi,

Thanks for the help! The bumper is straight as an arrow, and it was super easy to do. Thanks again for your advice!

Take care,

Mine has just slipped too!!!! lol.. what a strange coinsidence.

Just tried to take it off...

Does the bumper have built-in nuts? If so I think my lower left bumper hole stripped out. Also I could barely reach the upper one, and definately didn't want the whole side to strip out. Is there another way to fix the bumper "slip"?
