I think they went to composite in 98... so you'd need to change the grille, along with the headlights and corner lights. Maybe the bumper too???

I've seen kits to covert a 95-97 to a 98+

i dont think he is asking how to convert to the 98+ front end. i too have the sunk in looking headlights. mine is a 96. a friend of mine has a 96 but his headlights dont sit back in the grill but flush with the chrome grill. his takes a bulb replacement instead of buying a whole new sealed headlight. i dont understand why there are two different style headlights in the same year truck.

to these

Yes from my understanding the core supports are different but all that stuff will swap out.
