Grille question

[Wracks81]

I have an 85 Scottsdale. Will an 87 or so 4 headlight grille fit my single headlight truck? My turnsignals are under the headlights,but i can remove them from the other grille.

You need the 4 light core support as well. Most try to find one from a donor that has the headlight buckets and associated hardware.

Well, a couple things for you... First, you've got an 83-84 grille. The next style is the 85-88 grille, which is the one my Jimmy has. The last style is 89-91, which looks like an early GMT400 grille. Second, if you're switching from a single headlight configuration to a dual headlight one, the radiator core supports are different between those setups. So no, it's not a straight swap.

If it's just the grille you want to swap, then yes, it fits.
