Yes it is a shame to take apart a decent ride but for the price I got it for I would spend just on the front clip at a salvage yard plus I could sell just the intech motor and make almost double back

Hey man when you do your swap you might have to cut some up front. the brackets that held the f-150 bumper was in my way and would not allow me to swap my navi front end, but i cut the bracket off and the navi front bumper fits now. not sure how it will be for you but thought id tell ya just incase you have that prob

Apreciate the help. Did you use the navi bumper brackets or f150 brackets? also did you just clip and resuse the headlight wiring?

front end has only been fitted so far and needs very minor to be complete. I did have to do some modifications to the fenders and inner brackets for the grill area that I will post pics of the areas tomm. Im super stoked and ready to keep going on with the project
