after trying to sell my 94 xlt and no one wanting it. i decided to try something i always wanted to do. as we all know they never made broncos in 97 so i found a front end to a 97 f150 which we are going to put on the bronco. along with new quarters and a paint job.
f150 front end

heres the bronco

Good luck and I hope you can build a custom bumper.

IMO I think it will be ugly. I've always hated those front clips.

 

[ToddACimer]

Good luck, you're going to need it. Too bad it isnt a superduty clip

 

[MikeW]

Don't waste your time, there was a superduty front clip kit on here a couple years ago.

What's a branco? Nutritious, delicious, and fiber-filled breakfast cereal?


:rofl:

EDIT: Forgot to mention 1997 was the year the F-150 turned into a woman's truck. WAY too bubbly and rounded to be a man's vehicle. Kinda like a 1994-1998 Mustang looks just like a Grand Am (another woman car).

 

[Drilim]

I hate those clips. Hideous.

 

[william_ace]

do a superduty clip swap. on second thought. dont even consider that f150 front clip.

 

[bronco_kid78]

buy a POS and throw that on it. Your truck is too good to waste if it doesnt turn out right. It will be difficult, I agree Doba, those front ends are ugly. It will be interesting to see if you make it look right. good luck

I would take a 78-79, 92-96 Bronco/F-150 ANYDAY over the first generation of the new F-150s (1997-2004). Not really sure about the 2005+

Good luck on the swap, im definatly interested to see how it turns out.

But those body stylers were always girly looking to me,

 

[96GreenMonster]

agreed with everyone above, i think it will look stupid

but to each their own, as long as u are happy. and you want something different. go for it and have fun doing it

 

[fartman]

I like that front end, good luck. Take lots of pics.

[Lambo]

[broncokid94]

yeah i still havnt paid for the front end and i did want one a little newer but couldnt find one

 

[JKossarides]

As long as you have a Bronco Emblem or call it a Bronco, I say do what you like with it! :rockon

Good Luck ~ :thumbup

 

[broncoxlt4x4]

that sounds like a hell of a job.. Im curious to see how it comes out tho..opc1:

 

[chambiec1]

I doubt this will ever get finished.

 

[SigEpBlue]

I'm pretty optimistic he'll get 'er done. I hope it looks better than an Expedition though.

He's a youngster... and judging by his threads I doubt he has much mechanical ablility.
