79 front clip on 89 blazer.
Can someone tell me if it is possible to install a 79 round head light front clip on 89 blazer. I am pretty sure it is possible but need clarification. Thanks.

yes you can, then sell the 89-91 front end for a pretty penny.

Re: 79 front clip on 89 blazer.
I figured you could but my brother said he does think i will work. He bought a 79 blazer that is compleatly rusted out and gave up on that now got a 89 that needs work and is planing on combining trucks. He loves the single round head light look. He should be happy to know he can swap. Thanks.

Re: 79 front clip on 89 blazer.
Sure you can with some modifications on the cowl area and the frame horns. the square body has a different hood and your frame horns are cut off on the 89'. maybe radiator and shroud differences.. wire harness?? But it would work with some extra effort.
