...the whole front clip?... Fenders, hood, hood hinges, core support with hood latch panel, grille, grille brackets, headlight buckets, lower grille panel -whatever it's called- with the turn signals. That should be about it...
You should be getting a pretty good deal!

Don't forget the bumper and the brackets.

Yeah, you're going to need the wiper posts, possibly the arms, too.

When I didn my swap, the very top 9/16" fender bolts on the firewall didn't come close to lining up, so they never went in. It really makes no difference. Also if you're going from the dual headlights to the single headlights, you'll have to get the wiring harness for it [like I should have done] or do some rw-wiring that I can't remember until I look at my Blazer. AND the 1981-1991 front bumper will crunch into the fenders... I just left it happen because I have a bumper with trim and a CUCV brushguard. Everything everyone else said is it.
