2011-2016 Front Bumper Swap to 1999-2007 Ford F350 Super Duty

[@lucastowne8576]

No I’m not going to hate on this because I really like this but there is one thing I would change I would cut the brackets and the grill and have it sit back a little further

[@jlaustill]

Thanks for making this, it was VERY helpful for me!

[@veelink6345]

It can be done but that isn't it my friend, you need to make yourself brackets that drop it down and suck in that bumper in so it goes under the headlights at least 3/4? under the headlights. I see some people also cut the bottom filler on the old bumper and blackout the gaps then it looks original. To be honest the original bumper looks better than the new ones when you do the grill overlay color match the trim and install a light bar in the center fog light slot.

Happy to see another nj guy

At the 2.0 min mark you show the holes of a missing crossmember. Its removed and saved when installing a plow. You mentioned that point. In the Fisher / Western plow mount instructions and on a label on the crossmember, its written that this crossmember must be saved and transferred with the vehicle for replacement if the plow mount is removed. It is apparently a critical safety component and needs to be reinstalled if plow mount is removed. Something to consider looking into. I am not a safety Karen and often engage the safety squint while welding :) The amount of labels and warnings make me feel this frame crossmember is very important for the front end. Great video. Thank you

[@MoneyisanIllusion]

It turns out later I looked at a stock truck crossmember and my leaf springs for the lift would hit where the bar goes.

[@heavymetal375]

Some people just desperate to put the newer body style parts on these older trucks even tho it never matches 😂 same as the 2nd gen cummins guys adding 4th gen bumpers

[@swashington942]

With a little more work it'll probably look nice and tight. Not every one has $75,000 to purchase a new truck.

[@damianaguilar6415]

Looks great 👍

[@joel5716]

That piece that you were wondering what it is it's for the crash bar but it appears you dont have one on your truck idk why because you should to hold the frame together instead of the bumper holding your frame together

[@JMack-3478]

I just bought a that bumper and plan on doing the same... I also have an 02 with an 05-07 front clip.... I’m going to attempt some fabrication work to get it to sit back a little more... I think the biggest concern of mine is the gaps at the bottom corners of the grill... but looks sweet man good shit

[@thapuksvk21]

Thanks for the video 🙏🏻

[@JoseCruz-zp1vf]

Did the tow hooks slide back on? I just bought an 01 with the 11-16 front end swap but it has no hooks. Trying to see which ones to order

[@MoneyisanIllusion]

The 2002 tow hooks did fit back on. But to get the bumper to go over them you need to remove one of them. You can put it back on through the front when the bumper is in place.

[@DannyridesMTB55]

I think it looks good might try it on my 2003!!

[@traviscox3742]

Do u know if this fits the 08 F-250 super duty

[@MoneyisanIllusion]

08-10 bumper doesn’t fit 1999-2007 or 2011-16 trucks but the 2008-2010 front bumper fits the OBS pre 1998 front bumper and they look really good. I just put a 2008-2010 Westin brush guard on my 1999-2007 truck (2002) and it lined right up with the bumper mounts and the headlights line up I bought it for $27 on govdeals auction site it was such a good deal.

[@TheVanillagorilla12]

Mcnasty customs makes the brackets you need for 40.00 bucks

[@keithnoneya]

Wow even with the gaps this looks just Awesome! Thanks for such a great video on this upgrade. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
