Not really. Just remove the bumper and have two helpers hold the bumper up and hold it in place while you draw in the holes with a steel marker, crayon or chalk. Its two holes on each side that need to be drilled. Drill the new holes and install the bumper again. You will need the helpers again to hold the bumper while you tighten the bolts again. The bumper will sag if you dont. Hope that helps!

Took about an hour tops.

Tools:

Power Drill
Power cord
1/2 Steel bit
Steel Marker
