front clip question?

I am going to put a front clip with air off a 1971 2 wheel drive on my 1971 4X4 chevy truck. My question is there a difference between a 2 wheel drive clip from a 4X4 clip? Thanks Rick

No, but I think there might be an issue with the bumper brackets so save your old ones.

The front bumper brackets are the same but the ones on the back are different.

Re: front clip question?

Doesn't the radiator shroud depend on the engine, not whether the truck was 4x4 or not? Or is the shroud different because of the A/C? And is that what you were saying all along?

The 4x4 engine sat back more than the 2x4.The shroud is bigger on the 4x4,well on the 350 at least.
