Title: newer grille in Pickup
Post by: 87OldYeller on January 01, 2010, 08:50:17 pm
anyone got any picture of a 89-91 model suburban grille in a pickup. the headlight is side by side and are glass head lights with the plastic parking light liens under them. believe it had the plastic chrome grille. I am just tiring to get a picture. I have seen it before but dint remember and i think i want to do it to mine. just wondering what all i would have to change.

I think for the swap you need the core support and headlights, trim, grille, and lower valance  plus pigtails for the new lights.     The fenders, hood and bumper are the same.

The valance is the skinny panel under the grille behind the bumper.  it fills the gap behind the bumper.

I wont post a link but search google shopping and search 73-87 Range Rover and it will link you. I have never seen a c10 with the conversion I had posted on another board asking for pictures and nobody was able to provide any.

it could look good on the right truck???? I dunno though those headlights would be huge to go from the top and to the bottom of our grilles in my opinion.
