Grill Replacement
I was wondering how much trouble it would be to put a 69 Grill in a 71 . This is on a Blazer but I don't think there is any difference between it and a truck.Any information you can give me will be appreciated

Re: Grill Replacement
The grills are a bolt in interchange.

Re: Grill Replacement
Are you going to change your bumper and move the parking lights as well?

Re: Grill Replacement
I'm in the process of having a guy draw up plans for a Front bumper for a winch so he is going to put my park lights in it. I just like the look of a 69 grill.

Re: Grill Replacement
the 69 grill has the parking /blinker lights in the grill
71-72 are in the bumper |

Re: Grill Replacement
I haven't got a grill yet but I was thinking I could maybe fit some sort of Driving Lights in the Park/Blinker area

Re: Grill Replacement
The hood latch/supports are different. You'll need a new one for the swap...
