‼️ UPDATE FORD E-RAPTOR grille swap and install tutorial

[digitaldad]

Next I have to align my light bar

Did you ever attempt this?

Open frunk, turn passenger side bump stop clockwise a few full turns and driver side, a few counter-clockwise half turns (based on what I'm seeing in pics).

Close frunk, inspect, then open, rinse and repeat with half-turns until horizontal alignment satisfies.

When I did this, I also saw more uniform hood to fender lines on top edges of each side.

Any pics you could share? I have no idea what you're referring to and want to try it.

Grabbed a snapshot on that YT guy that removes his frunk tub. This is the passenger side, of course (you do not need to remove the plastic access liners/clips to do this).

May have to use channellocks for first turn but can then do by hand.

Clockwise = lowers
Counter-clockwise = raises

Found a driver-side view with liners/clips still in place.

Those adjusters align the hood to the fenders, not necessarily the light bar. Check to make sure your hood is even with the fenders if you adjusted those.

If the hood is already aligned one needs to align the light bar by itself.

Ok, so how?

In this video, at around the 6 minute mark, you can see how the light bar is mounted. You will need to get to these nuts to adjust the bar itself.

That would have been great to take care of when I had my grill off. It's not happening now. Mainly just because getting the plastic clips off inside or such a pain in the rear end

Yep...I stated in my post (one before what you quoted), this aligned the hood and the light bar.

My hood is lined up to the fenders. The light bar is lined up to the hood. The problem is my passenger side headlight is about a quarter inch too low.
