: Has anyone put a 05 gmc front on an 02? nekkidhillbilly 09-22-2006, 06:20 AM you have to have new frame horns for 03 up ive seen 03 up grill with 99-02 bumper and it looks great if you want to weld on the new horns ;) twerksomtin 09-29-2006, 01:40 AM Yeah just finished putting a 03 front on a 02. I had to chop off my old frame brackets and install the frame brackets of the 03. The new frame brackets were expensive as hell, almost $400 for both. elvis_knows 10-05-2006, 09:33 AM So, I assume you would have the same problem putting a 2002 front bumper & grille on a 2006 GMC HD, right? I think that the 2002 GMC front end, along with the Denali, are both better looking than the current GMC HD front, with its "shadetree-look" black spacer that doesn't really fill all of the gap between the front bumper & fender flares. elvis_knows 10-05-2006, 09:37 AM Yeah just finished putting a 03 front on a 02.

With the oem alternative costing $400, was adaptation not possible? igork5k20 10-05-2006, 01:53 PM Go Denali!!! :D :D http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h319/SCAREDYCAT_2006/BEN/GMC/IMG_1022.jpg trukworx 10-05-2006, 02:01 PM $400 what, I have thrown many sets of those away,Twerk if you need some let me know nekkidhillbilly 10-05-2006, 09:42 PM yeah you could make some out of steel elvis_knows 10-06-2006, 05:21 AM Here's an example of a 2004 2500 with no spacer above the bumper. It has 8-lug wheels, which should confirm that it's a 2500HD (rather than being one of the variations based on the 1500). Did GM ever build them like this, or is it likely that it was modified to raise the front bumper?

Been thinking about that for some time now. Thanks.
