intalling a SS frontend on a Silverado 4x4

[silverado_ia]

Well I have a 04 Silverado LS Ext Cab, 4WD. I plan on lowering it and putting a SS frontend on it, grill and bumper. Do all years of SS's fit a 04. There is a wreched SS at a local salvage yard and thinking about buying the frontend off of it for my truck, but I think it's a 05 or 06, will have to call them to make sure but thought I'd ask here first before I waste my time with them.

 

 

 

Any help or suggestions would be great.

yeah it will fit no problem. if it is an 06, the grille is a little different in the way it looks and bolts up. also on an 06, the hood is taller in the front but again that will just be different in the way it looks. it will work fine. get the body cladding too and rear bumper/cover if its usable. seats and guages too while youre at it. but to answer your question, yes, it will work easy.

whats the body cladding?

 

 

There really isn't anything left of the backside of the truck, and the interior is shot from the back window was blown out from the crash and it's rained in it for a while now. At least the interior didn't look good to me.

 

So I believe it's an 05, because if you say 06 has a different front end then thats not it, my neighbor has a 07 and his is different then mine. So I'd say its a 05, should I get the hood to, or is it the same as mine? I'm going to buy the front wheels and just keep an eye on Ebay for two more wheels. What about the disc brakes on a SS are they a bigger diameter then mine? Obviously I know nothing about SS, I'm actually I'm new to the whole truck thing so I'm just learning what works with what.

 

On mine I have the black fender flares which I plan on removing, and remove the pin-stripping, and side molding. I'm going to stay with the stock color, I actually really like the color, and think it will look nice solid one color.
