front clip swap

hey guys

I have a 02 7.3 F350 jacked up on 40" boggers, ill post some pics as soon as i can figour out how. anyways ive got a line on the complete front end from a wrecked 08 6.4L fenders, hood, grill, bumper and want to do the swap. I have googled and searched this but havent found any links to people doing it or anything, maybe im not searching hard enough. If anyone has seen this done or has any opinions i would love to hear em.

I have an opinion, but it's not helpful here.

The body style is just different enough I wouldn't expect everything to bolt on. The 05-7 would be easier, but for the 08 I think you need to pull the hood and fenders off. Then start fitting parts back on. You may have to make a couple of flat brackets or drill some holes to line everything back up, but I doubt it will be all that difficult.
