hey everyone i was wondering if it was possible to go to a junkyard and pick up a 98-up front bumper and bolt it onto my 97...i know im gonna need all the lights and **** but i was jus wondering if it was possible...

 

Ive seen it done and heard of others doing it. Not sure how though as I have a 1st gen blazer. Can't be too hard.

 

I looked at doing it to my 97. You need the lights, pigtails, rad support, grill. stylinconcepts sells it all for around $770, so a junk yard will be cheaper.

So you basically need all of the front end.... is this pretty straight forward? Anyone know, my search isnt detailed enough to find anything out about it! Does it require any major mods, or just some bolting up? Thanks for any help

as far as i've been told its just take old off, bult new on. no major modding involved. and i checked it on Ebay about 6 mths ago and it would only have cost me $400 for everything.

Hmmm, this peeks my curiosity! I'm in love with look of the blazer on the top of the site. I like the look of that bumper and you still have accses to the hooks..... Definately will have to check this out as I get some more money.
Thanks man, and ill post if i do do this.

I got the '98 front bumper and I also like it so much, but still the '97 also looks quite aggressive even if now it's a bit "old fashioned"...

Another good thing about the '98 one is that even if there is a new '05 blazer they didn't change that much and its shape is very similar to my '98. So, this make all Blazers between '98 and now still look recent and there's no need to keep upgrading it!

My congrats to all the people working at Chevy for that!!!
