01+ conversion, prerunner bumper?
Not having the best of luck with my bumpers after the BL...Front one is scratched up some.....Can i put an 01+ powerdome hood on with the newer headlights, and fab a prerunner style bumper to fix the gap with no problem???
What will i need for the headlights and 01+ grill?
I know the hood will switch no problem

I excluded the info on the hood in our pm's because you dont need to replace your hood to run the 01-03 grille and headlights. Don't need to swap bumpers either.
Maybe this'll satisfy what your after....

Buggest thing is the way the fenders are 'cut' on the bottom for the bumper and the corner lamps....all will need welded up/modded/blended etc if you want to run your stock fenders. I think something involving the entire front coresupport too needs to be address...then again, i havn't been researching the 01+ swap on a 97 and older truck.

Im not sure as to if the sockets will install to 01+ headlights but the bulbs are the same and as long as you just leave the 2nd blinker light in it will not blink fast. There has to be a resistor you could wire in and just get rid of it but i haven't seen anyone do it. But at the same time im not reading up on 01+ conversions.
