just picked this truck up last night. runs awesome and tranny rebuilt 2 years ago.needs a little body work but made a 60 miles drive home. the radiator support/ driver fender/ hood/ radiator need to be replaced. just hit 200k




any tips or tricks if you have replaced a front clip before??

 

i can tell you right now there is hidden damage under that left fender...its gonna need to go to a frame shop and im not liking how that drivers door is misaligned...

 

eh maybe so but it will forever be a work truck so im not too worried about it. as long as it looks decent on the outside and the wheels can be aligned then im ok. if you are right and there is enough frame damage that it effects the wheel alignment... well then i'll have a problEM

 

in the first picture, the door is not shut all the way. they cab and bed line up perfectly

 

Easy fix.

 

are u sure its guna need frame repair? the bumper isn't even bent, unless they replaced it.

 

the inner structure behind the fender is bent...i can tell that just by looking at it

 

There is no inner structure, unless you're talking about the plastic inner fender. The rest is all fender and comes right off with the fender.

 

im talking about what the fender bolts to

 

Here's a few pics of mine:
