Probaly could i just a custom bumper from a 99 on my 91 and had no problems at all the biggest problem i see is the license plate since on 99+ it's in the tailgate and 97 down it's mounted in the bumper itself.
 






Just make sure to get all of the bumper; both the structure and cover. It will bolt right up.

If i dont have the structure for the front bumper is it possible to just do something to make the bumper cover fit. I only have the cover, and the bumper & brackets are expensive.
 






You are only limited to your own skills and proficiencies
 






I'd get the structure as well. Just less of a hassle.

get it used from a junkyard
 






I guess buying it is going to be my last option thanks for helping me out you guys. Can you guys let me know if you see one for a good price?

That would score a big zero in the safety catagory.
