MjPioneer Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I was looking into swapping my front end, the only problem I have is I just put new oem fenders on my Mj. Is it possable to use the 97+ header panel with the pre 97 fenders? Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 The upper/outer corners don't line up. The early fenders have a flat, straight chamfer at the transition from the vertical sides to the flat top next to the hood. The early header has a small beveled section to match this. The new style is rounded (radiused) rather than chamfered. You can make it work. Before mounting the new header, you fill in the inside of those upper corners with Bondo. Then you mount the header, and shave down the outside of the upper/outer corners to blend in with the old fenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
