I'm wondering if a 98+ jimmy front end would just fit right in or if I would have to get a different radiator mount, and all the other stuff u need to do 95-97 front end swap

Radiator support is the same, but the bumper/cover isn't. You would need the grill, headlight assemblies, and bumper/cover.

I may have to hit up the junk yard and see what I can find. Only thing I'm going to be picky about is the jimmy headlights have to have the built in fogs...

Benedict... If you do find what you are looking for.... Let me know if you wanna get rid of your factory turns/fogs... I spent an hour in the local pull and save with no luck...

Unique idea... why not try cutting the "chrome" bowtie strip flush with the sides of the grille and stick the GMC headlights in place of the chevy's? It'd be unique, and if it looks good it was cheaper than buying a grille too lmfao.
