Do you mean the '88-'98 pickup style front-end, or the "transitional" square-body grille that was on some of the '90-'91 Suburbans? I think the latter would be a lot easier to pull off. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, I can post some pics.

No, the mid70's(73-?) truck hoods incorporated the cowl as part of the hood, not exactly sure when that changed, also somewhere in the early 80's, the hood hinge was actually in the cab, and the spring/hinge was acoiled one. My question is how to put a later model hood and fenders(from say a '86) on the '74?
