: 02 grill and headlights on 03 or newer? (HD)

I know the grill, hood, lights and everything are different, but could a truck with the cat eye headlights be fitted with the lights like on the 01 and 02 hd models?

The hood and fenders will not match up. I believe the whole front clip is different on the 03 and up trucks.

need new fenders, hood, grille, lights, and bumper.

but once you have those parts its pretty much "bolt on"

(meaning, all of the 2001-2006 trucks are identical from the A-pillar back)

also the frame horns for the front bumpers are different

then you would just have a 01-02 truck so y not buy an 01-02

I didn't know that the frame horns where different, damn. I would have bought an 01 or 02 truck, but back when I ordered my 05 I paid $2,000 more dollars for a brand new truck than I could an 01 or 02 with 50,000 miles on it. I looked high and low for months, just didn't see it feasable, maybe someday I'll end up scattering a deer with it and be able to get a different front end.
