can the 08 or newer F250 entire front end fit a 2005 model?

parts will fit only after you also replace the frame ends..
the 08+ has a redesigned frame horn area..its quite abit lower then the 07- models..
but the sheetmetal sizing otherwise is the same. in that the fenders and hood do in fact fit.
so in addition to what you need you also would have to add rad support (welded in) and front frame horns (not sure how far back you'd have to splice in), and of course all the other necc. small parts like clips/fasteners..
its a MUCH bigger job then you prolly expect.

Probably will need a header panel too, headlights are pretty different.

Ok so, if this is the case, how about I proceed upgrading it in to a 2011 model instead of a 2010, it might not cost a lot more money than what I already have to spend since I have to buy pretty much the entire front and seems like the parts would fit the truck. How about it? Am I being to aggressive or is it feasable?

ok then, I will see if moneywise its doable, otherwise I'll upgrade it in to a 2010....either way it's a great project and seems like doing it right the results would be satisfactory. Thanks for your help.
