Bought an 05 f150 4x4 damage in the front and rear hoping todo a raptor conversion, but after seeing some of the conversion and hearing from a couple of people on the fiberglass quality and vibrating fiberglass i decided to do a front end swap to an 09-14 model screw

 

 

 

my plans when finished is to look something similar to this

 

Well, I've only ever seen one truck with the updated front end. It was an almost wrote off 08 limited with the 09+ front end. Looked good.

 

hope you get the frame straightened.......that front end is beyond gone.

 

UPDATEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry its been awhile been pretty tied up!

 

 

 

This has potential

 

hood , fenders where a breeze to install. had to use new hood hinges, and new antenna mount which im still waiting on. should have the rest of the front done some time next week only missing the 2 bar fx4 front grille ot come in. everything else is laying around to get installed. whole front end has come out to $1200 with everything emblems, mounts etc, everything brand new.

 

thank you!

 

No problem. I'm definitely looking forward to the final pics.

 

might take about 2 months, have toooooo many projects at once lol the only thing that i didnt get on the conversion was the rear bed for the 09-13 the cheapest one locally ran me about 1500 for just the bed.... i was able to pick up the 05 model for $750 and brand new tailgate for $170, planning on doing a 2.5 level bigger wheels with tires haven't really decided on the tire wheel combo yet. also might get it painted a little darker green. lets see how it goes, im about 5k into car including purchase and parts

 

You section in a new frame rail?
