Topic: 1999 to 2001 front end conversion

[davidstaco]

does any one know if it is possible to  change the front end(grille,bumper,lower valance,headlights,hood,etc.) of a 1999 toyota tacoma to make it look like the front end of a 2001 toyota tacoma. Everything looks like it will match up but im not sure please someone help me I have yet to get a straight answer on this one!

[davidstaco [OP]]

[Ramrod]

not sure about the mounting holes lining up but ive been known to cut

i bet you everything would line up and probably just about bolt in. its a 2nd gen taco to a 3rd gen. everything off a first gen tacoma would fit on my 92. i was measuring it out one day.

i would think its exact or very close...... my 84 has headlights from an 81, and other things.... without fenders on, the trucks look pretty much the same underneath

The core support might be slightly different.
