05+ bumper conversions

[Beast Of Burden]

When doing an 05 front end conversion, how do the bumpers bolt up? Do you need to get 05 bumper brackets or are they the same as the 99-04?

[Dasaliac03]

i would also like to know, i plan to do either the 05 or the 08

Oops I put this in the 6.0 section, could an Administrator or moderator move it to the 7.3L exterior discussion, Please

[Dasaliac03]

i dont think it matters the section, some 6.0 guys with the 03 or 04's want to do this too

The brackets are not the same. You'll have to buy new ones

Can fogs from the 99-04 bumpers be used in the 05-07 bumpers?

I believe they're different, too. I know that when I ordered my fogs (which I've had for over a year and still never installed ), I had to specify whether my truck was a 99-04 or 05-07

[Dasaliac03]

so ALL IN ALL

what will i need for an 05 conversion

[Fantom]

My guess would be, Bumper, Bumper Brackets, Grille, Headlights, Header Panel, 05+ Fog Lights and Brackets, Beer
