Bumper Damage?

Hey Guys, I usually stay down in the diesel forum but my boys 03 ranger got backed into at a ball game. I have been searching in my shop manual but cant get a clear picture of what all I need to do to fix this.

Any Help will be appreciated, Thanks.

Bumper fix...

I had a similar problem. My bumper was pulled out about 2 in. (not tilted like yours, also I have a ’99 Ranger so the bumper may be a bit different). I fixed it by removing the bumper and straightening the bracket that attached the bumper to the frame. The bracket was easy to straighten. Looks just fine now. Good luck.

I have a 98 2 wheel drive Ranger. I purchased the truck second hand and the left side of my bumper looked like yours. I used a hydraulic floor jack with a piece of 2x4 and lifted on the lip on the inside of the bumper. I jacked it up as far as it would go, which wasn't quite far enough. I know that I should have taken the bumper off to do it right, but it came out sort of OK. It is not completely straight, but its better than it was. You have to go look at the other side to see the difference.
