The DIY manual for 4-4.5 front end conversion is gone.

I plan on getting a used Gen 4.5 bumber and grab some headlights and all so I was really happy to have a DIY on the possible things to look up for but the link is not working anymore.

Where could I get it now?

Not much DIY needed really, you need the lights, fenders, bumper, and I believe the Hood stayed the same.

I don't need the fenders. All I need is to replace bumper/lights/grill and cut the radiator mounts so the headlights fit in.

I want the manual, whoever did it send me a PM.

I don't think the guy that did the DIY changed the fenders and it looks sexy as hell, did you look up the thread?

You do not need fenders as the 4 & 4.5 fenders are same part #.

I did the conversion and it was only headlights, grill, bumper.
