    I just installed my All-Pro front bumper and it's tilted forward. The gap between bumper and fender is tapered, getting smaller toward the rear. The rear corner of the bumper is contacting the bottom of the fender flare. Are there any tricks to leveling the bumper fore-and-aft? What's the best order to tighten the nuts?

    Washers where? At the three forward-pointing studs where the original aluminum tube mounted?

    if it connects to there, i would say yes, you definitely need something to thrust it forward some.

    Yeah add or take away washers on the bottom bolts that screw in underneath as needed. I had the same problem too, but washers didn't fix it. I took a pry bar where those small tabs get put in at the bottom and gently pulled in towards you... Just pry a bit and it should level it out nicely.
