Alright, I have 91 4 dr. and the paint is really bad and was just about to get it painted but I want to put a 95-up front end on mine and then get it painted. I know of perry's fab and fiber, but I am wondering if I can just get a front end off of one out of a junkyard or somethin and do it like that, or would I have to do some fabricating to get it to fit? I don't really think that I want fiberglass though because I heard that bugs and debris just stick right to it and I'd have to go get it buffed out. And another thing I would liek to do is change my 2wd o 4wd, I know it'd be pretty hard, but would it be just as hard to put in the regular front axle(i forgot what its called) than to put a solid axle? Thanks in advance.
 






You could probably swap the oem front-end off a 95, but it would take some small fabricating. I bought Perry's Fiberglass one because it was cheaper than buying the complete front end from the junkyard(by about $1500). The fiberglass fenders aren't exactly the oem style, but the look good.I'm just about to install the headlights. Oh, the 91 bumper won't work with the fiberglass front-end either. I'm putting a tube bumper on anyway. Hope this helps.
