Well if you have both vehicle you could always just try swapping parts. Pretty much the easiest way to know what fits what...

yes, i have done this. the 81-91 suburban have the hood hinges built into the cowl, and the 73-80 trucks have the hood hinges bolted onto the fenders.

the core support will go right on, and the fenders will bolt right to the cab.

if you are changing the hood, fenders, and core support along with the other goods like grill and head light doors, this is a very simple swap!

also, the body lines will match up 100% if you look at the fenders from 73-80 they have a body curve in the front of them going down, and the 81-91 suburban fenders have the same body line in the rear, and change in the front going straight into the side of the head light area.

urbandev

yup. not to mention the 73-78 body style looks a hell of a lot better

MrTailLight

another question, why go from the newer style to the older style? most people go to the newer from the older

urbandev

because everything from the 80's looks like crap. I refuse to acknoledge that era
