Im new to the Express world, and I just realized about the 03 Facelift for the front end. Has anyone tried to install a facelift 03 front end in a pre 03? just wondering.
I did it to support the intercooler for my duramax conversion. It's a lot of work.the inner fender structure needs to be cut off and newer style welded in, then you have to extend modify your front frame rails to accommodate the front body mounts being 6" farther forward and allow the newer bumper to mount up..
Unless you smashed up your existing front end and have to replace it all anyways it's just not worth the work.
