Wanted to let you guys know that i will be converting the front of my 08 to an '11 truck front. I'll document everything to the best of my ability. Ordered the upper and lower grille mount from tasca. Picking up my fenders, hood, grille, and cowl monday. Headlights are in the mail too.
I'm in for this one! Gonna be slick!
Best of both world imo- I love the '11 front end, but the 6.4 motor is hard to beat right now. Once the 6.7 gets a bit of awakening to it, may be different. But for now, I love me some Franken-trucks :evil
I'd probably go for this if I had an 08. You get the new truck looks and still awesome power of the tuned 6.4 The 08-10 trucks look like they have down syndrome to me.
should be a sweet project like that blue 450 with the 011 front end the 011 looks better with the 08 style dually fenders let me know how it works out i might want to do this to my truck :whs:
Fenders and hood are painted. UPS broke one of the headlights in shipping so that delayed the part swapping that was supposed to happen today. Looks like late next week, around Friday I will be swapping everything over.
whoever said this bolts on is full of poo. It's almost done but I'm on my cell phone right now. All that's left to do is make the top grille mount and lower front fender support bracket. Don't worry, there will be a detailed write up when I get home.
Can't wait man! Hope it isn't bustin your butt too much. Sounds like you do have it under control though!
Gonna look goooood :evil
