quick reassurance please!!
so basicallly my truck is a frankenstein!! it's an '07 ford ranger, but when it was rebuilt the guy mixed some cosmetic stuff up with whatever he found..
I have a later model grille/hood/bumper.. nd i wanna change it out for the 07 pretty much nd i found this set on ebay that i liked, but it comes with "HEADLAMP MOUNTING PANEL"
my true question is if i already have one in the truck.. i'm not going to need to get another one cuz i can just keep the one i have cuz it'll fit the same way?? or i need to get a new one cuz it won't fit??
i just need some reassurance cuz ive been told a couple things by a few people nd got curious!! OPINIONS PLEASE!!
THANK YOU
Cortney

Here is what I know from reading on this site…
When some of the members switched from there '00 front sheet metal to an '03 Power dome hood/sheet metal they had to change the inner header panel also. So I would think that it is the same in reverse.
Why would someone switch backwards, funny !
Did you check out the VIN to make sure you got an “07 ?

That 'light mount' is the header panel.

Your options for lifting are bigger coils, coil spacers, spindles or body lift. My spindles were fine and a lot of other guys have run them in the past as well without problems.

Yep, he must have had a non-insurance covered accident. They do have quite a different array of front ends for those last 6 years. Mine had that ugly generic looking black all over theme to it. I ordered the 08 set up and got the chrome grill. The 07 seemed to be the mix of the bunch, from the XL to the STX of that year I noticed a big difference in the style of the front ends but the rear style was only different with the painted bumper.
