Prepare Truck Bumper and Frame

What happens here

Begin by removing the truck's lower plastic valence (air dam) located under the front bumper. This often involves cutting the plastic to create clearance for the plow's mounting components. The video shows using an air saw for this task. Ensure that any plastic pieces that obstruct the mounting points are carefully trimmed away. Additionally, if the truck has factory tow hooks, these will need to be removed as the plow mounting system will utilize or replace these attachment points. The video also shows removing a specific bracket from behind the bumper that typically holds the bumper to the truck's frame, which will be replaced by the plow's push bar supports.

Goal: Create clearance and prepare the truck's front end for plow mounting hardware.
