hello guys, i have an 86 silverado dual headlight and would like to know what all is needed to got from duals to singles, not rounds but rectangular...

would it just be radiator support, lights, grill etc. etc.? or a front clip like duals to round??

kind regards

It's just the core support, lights, and grille stuff. The sheetmetal is the same.

yeah that's about an 8 hour drive round trip, not sure it would be really worth it to trade radiator core supports...

I've done that already, Switched the 79 High Sierra Jimmy head lights, grill, Fenders and Hood for a 87 Suburban slanted look. How does this look?

I like it, just wanted to see how yall would react to the switch? Ma Deuce

the single headlight look just appeals to me more... i wish it wasn't so difficult to go to the round headlight look for my 86

Well you could always go to www.lmctruck.com and pick up a part book. I'm sure you could get rid of 86 front fender's and all the other stuff too, I am in the process of removing the 87 grille, fenders, hood and ect, and going to a 1973 GMC Jimmy look.
