Re: front end conversion,

dont buy a kit, thats retarded what they charge for those, go to a salvage yard and get it that way, there are tons of wrecked s10s out there with perfectly good front ends sitting in yards

Re: front end conversion,

yea its real easy, if u wanna go with the 98+ s10 look, youll need core support, grille, lights, side markers, you can use the same hood and fenders

All of those, except for the trailblazer and hombre, are about the same in difficulty.

Check out pics of those conversions man and just choose which one you like best. after you do that its all about collecting parts.

Re: front end conversion,

The Hombre swap is easy, it all bolts on, just need more parts. Not nearly as difficult as a trailblazer swap
