Hi all,

I just purchased a 2000 Express 3500 with only 24k miles. I’ve looked around and seen some conflicting post about front end conversions. Do I have any options to upgrade to a newer/different models front end? Thank you

 

Weldtec Designs will sell you a kit to convert to the 2004+ front end.

Are you talking about the front end suspension or the headlight grille from a sealed beam type headlight to a headlight composite type? Pretty sure you can swap 2003 - 2019 models, so no (a 2000 Express will not swap) if that was your question.

There are no reasonable options for changing the front clip, the newer clip is much longer and coincides with the longer redesigned from frame section that came in 03. I did this mod, but I also used a newer frame that I had built seperately when designing/building my 4x4 conversion...even with the new frame it was a lot of work. My recommendation would be just to buy a newer van..
