Converting the ranger.

What i would like to do is put in 01 or newer lights and grille in my ranger, but what is needed to do that? The forums everywhere else didnt help much because they seemed more concentrated on the bumpers and stuff.
But, do i need to swap fenders? Is anything going to get in the way or need to get modified?

I think you are going to have a REAL hard time with that one. IIRC, the 98-00 can be updated with some sub assembly swapping....but the fenders are completely different. I may be wrong on this...but maybe someone else with either back me up or contradict me with some better info.

You're going to need the radiator core support from a 01+ Ranger, this is how you will mount the lights and grill.

I can't remember if the fenders were different, I thought they worked for a 93+ Ranger.
