Super Duty front end

A few years ago in the back of Truckin mag there was a company in Washington state that was selling a kit to convert a 92-96 Fseries to a Super Duty style front end. Does anyone have any info on this or company name?

Are you talking like a 99+ front end from a super duty?

That would be, uh different!

To have super duty front end on our trucks you would have to carry two spare tires as the bolt patterns are different.

If it's a decent kit it will have unique fenders and hood to mold the old bodylines into the SD grill/headlight assembly. It's certainly a unique idea and a good way to moderize the look of these trucks.. not that the '92-96 version is that bad. I bet it would be expen$$$ive.

I remember this also. The one I inquired about was a complete fiberglass tilt front-end with all the lights, supports, etc. I thought about putting one on the 93', however for almost 4 grand plus labor and paint, my front-end is just fine.

The pic doesn't work. As far as this goes I did see it and it looks like the front fenders keep the 92-96 wheel well and changes the front of the fender where the parking light is. Then the hood and front end are different. They mimick the superduty but are not exactly the same. It is interesting. In my opinion it ruins the look of our trucks and cost way too much.
