I swapped out the entire front end of my 2005 Chinook. I installed the front end off of a 2010 on it but im not sure i like how it looks now that im finished.

It use to look similar to this one.....

One thing about it, theres a ton of room behind the grill if i want to store some extra luggage in there or mount a couple extra house batteries.

Looks awesome (y) The black and white have a great contrast. Very rugged looking.

I think packing and shipping all of the parts would exceed the actual cost of the parts.
I’ll come by and take it off your hands if the border opens up. I’m not unhappy with the ‘97 front end, but the newer one would make space for an intercooler.

I wont be doing anything more with it this year, winter has set in and i no longer work on vehicles if the temp is below 55 degrees outside. LOL

I have a 2014 e450 chrome grill front end if anyone is interested.
I was going to swap it over to my 2000 e350 but plans have changed.
It is still mounted to the 2014 v10 e450 shuttle bus
Transmission has 48,000 miles.
V10 engine is bad.

Someone can take it all for $1600. You can upgrade your dash, guages, etc

The chinook looks way better now. I like the chrome grill better but the black looks meaner.
