Saw a custom Grill listed for a 1970-71 F-100. What problems would I have installing that in my 1969 Ranger ??

Should swap right in.

 

You would need correct lower valance with turn signals attached. If you try to attach the turn signals to your 69 lower valance they might not fit and won't look right.
The indented area on the 67 68 69 is different than the 70 71 72 for the turn signals or grille.
Why don't you want to use a 69 ranger grille?
Other than that, it will bolt right in.

 

I saw the grill and it looked better than a 69 Ranger. Also a grill for my ranger I can not even locate one in great condition

C9TZ-8200-A .. Anodized Aluminum Grille = 1969 Ranger only.

C8TZ-8200-E .. Anodized Aluminum Grille = 1968 Ranger/Custom Cab / 1969 Custom Cab.

The only difference between these two grilles: The center horizontal bar on the 1969 Ranger grille is painted red within its indentation, the headlamp area is painted black.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1967 F100/350 grilles are one year only. 1967 grilles look nothing like '68/69 grilles. For one thing, there is no center bar w/an indentation.

1970 F100/350: The grille shell and the two plastic 'checkerboard' aka' egg crate' styled inserts are 1970 only. The inserts are the same right/left.

1971/72 F100/350's use the same grille frame (D2TZ-8200-A replaced D1TZ-8200-A). The plastic grille inserts are specific to right or left. 1971's use different styled inserts than 1972.

All 1970/72 F100/350's use the same right/left parking lamps and the lower valance panel they mount to.

 

Here's a 69 Ranger Grille. Is this what you can't find?

I sent you a P.M.

 

ahh the infamous 69 that no one can get . How you been Robert?

 

Doing good, and you? Hows your grille coming along? Yeah the 69 Ranger grille in the picture, someone has! That one sold a long time ago. I keep the picture for reference. All the 69 Ranger grilles look like this when I'm finished with them.

 

I have one from a truck I'm taking apart. Make offer if ya want it by PM.

 

I just picked up a 69 im gunna part out. The grill is in good shape no damage, it is faded, im not sure you can polish these because of the anodizing. I also have lots of other pieces. If your looking for anything else let me know. Offers on all parts.

 

does any one still have any of these famous 69 grills for sale?

 

Thanks for the reply but my grill is great but dull because
Of anodizing. I know u can remove it and it
Can be polished to look like chrome but I
Do not know how . Thanks again .
