Re: 1977 front on an 80

If you just want the grille it is an aesy swap . Swapping the eitire front to the 77-78 front wil require the grille, headlight buckets,upper and lower grille surround trim , and a lower valance since the 1980 trucks had extra holes in the valance.
None of this is hard at all ,just turning a few wrenches and finding parts .
