Thanks for all the work! I am going to put a steel bumper on and wanted to make sure that all I needed was a new grill since everything else is getting replaced with the steel bumper. I am much more confident now!
@@MTBAlex Have you done any other mods to “update”. With the price of new vehicles, i wanna fix mine up as a secondary vehicle now that Im retired. Plus need the $$ to buy a new family vehicle. Things cost almost twice what i paid for my 11 brand new.
@@deputyknight1620 no necessarily. A couple of years ago I upgraded the wheels from a newer one, the ones it currently has, also about 5-6 years ago, I installed a android head unit, works awesome with the android auto adapter, also swapped the badges to black ones about 2 years ago
@@MTBAlex Was it one of the large screen types like in the newer models? I was thinking about that but i am an Apple guy, so do not know much android stuff
The plastic trim pieces you put on the reinforcement before the bumper and grill do the originals work or do I need to order ? ( reinforcement cover support)
Hola Alex. Muchas gracias por tremendo video. Es lo que pienso hacer a mi troca. Bueno tengo una SLT con un bumper de dos partes cromado. La unica pieza que me hace falta y no encuentro es la que pones justo en el minuto 11:25. No pude encontrarla en la lista de cosas en la descripcion si pudieras ayudarme con eso te lo agradeceria.. y de nuevo muy buen video. Pronto are lo mismo ami camion! De antemano muchas gracias.
I seen on another video the guys replaced the radiator brackets for the 2013 up grill to fit in their 2011 but you didn’t so I’m confused… will try your way… guessing the bumper will match up on the grill corners
was it from a sport to a sport? I seen a video of a couple of hispanic guys replacing it to a brownish truck if I remember correctly, but I think that one has the 2 piece bumper. Mine not the case, What i replaced is all you need if you have one like mine. Make sure you watch all the way, I did mentioned I did not need to install the corner pieces under the headlights, they were different, maybe with the other radiator support would have work, in my case, the ones that were originally there were good.
Is it possible to put the older style grille on a newer truck? I know it will not work with the bumper but I want to do hd bumper swap so I need the older grille
I need all the screws because I used to had metal bumper and I bought it like that but I need the screws and it didn’t come with when I order everything the bumper and everything. where can I get them can’t find them
Did you run into any issues with the grille fitting the rad support on the bottom? I hit a deer and my truck is just about to get fixed and I am contemplating going this route. Mine is an '11 with the chrome bumper. The top looks like it should be the same but the bottom not so much
I have a 2009 with the 2 piece chrome front bumper, can I just buy the bumper cover for 2013 and just swap it or I need the support and accessories also ??
I think you need everything I used, the bracket is different.. I tried it before with the original bracket, but it seated higher.. Everything I used is linked in description
The ones under the headlights? I did not mention because I did not need to replace them, as you saw on the clips, the originals were left intact. I had purchased a pair, but did not fit, and were not needed, the stock ones did the job. Hope that helps
good video friend i have 2010 ram i have all the parts ready that i saw in your video i would just be like to know if a huge part is needed for the grill i did not see that you will change any parts for the grill friend your help will help a lot thanks

I'm so glad you did a video on this front end swap. Not many people know this is possible, and it looks amazing too
Thanks man.
Like you said, not many people knows, and I couldn't find anyone else doing this exact swap, but did parts research and it all worked out
@@MTBAlexwhat parts did you buy? Is it just that bracket you repclacrd apart from the grille and bumper
@@rolandor.137 they are all linked in the video description. Let me know if that helps

hey know this is an old comment but I wanted to do this with a prerunner style how did it work out?
@@markrussell9583 I did a 2013 + steel front bumper with no issues on my 2012. All I did was buy a new 2013 grill. Everything matched up!
Finally, i found someone who did what i want to do. Thank you for all the info.
Glad I could help
The pieces under the headlights you don't need if you have the same set up as I have, I returned them

awesome. looks great. so we cant just change the bumper. we have to replace the support bar first, to allow the grill and bumper to work?
The plastic trim pieces you put on the reinforcement before the bumper and grill do the originals work or do I need to order ? ( reinforcement cover support)
Clean, i wanna do this to my truck
Muy buen video, estoy haciendo eso en la troca de mi hijo, mi pregunta es la pieza de metal es necesario cambiarla??
What’s the name of the part he installed at a 11:22
im confused did you just replace the bumper with a new one or is it 2 different bumpers cuz i dont see the difference of the bumpers
Hola amigo tengo una ram igual a la tuya es blanca y quiero hacer el mismo procedimiento ese parachoques negro le queda a la parrilla 2018 o 19 ?

MTB Alex, i have a 2012 ram 1500 ST and wanted to know if a 2009 ram 1500 rear bumper can fit on my 2012 model, please
Rear bumper should be the same for all 4th gen
@@MTBAlex thanks for help bro really appreciate it
Is this only for the sport bumper? I want the standard look, do you think it’d work?
Did you run into any issues with the grille fitting the rad support on the bottom? I hit a deer and my truck is just about to get fixed and I am contemplating going this route. Mine is an '11 with the chrome bumper. The top looks like it should be the same but the bottom not so much
You will need everything I listed in the description otherwise the grille won't fit
@@MTBAlex What did you do about the fog lights? Did you just cut the connector off and wire in new ones for the old H10 to new 9006 bulb?
@@jeep4lyfe319 same harnes worked..
What type of grill do you have on your truck?
The 2013 grille for good? You didn’t need to do anything all the bolts line up with the truck to make it fit?
No mods to the grille, just all the other parts I sawapped
So basically you just need a 2013 or newer bumper reinforcement correct ?
Hello. Do you have a video to swap from the chrome one i have to this one? I have 2009 ram 1500 slt crew cab.
I do not, I think there are some outhere, but you'll still need all the parts I used, linked in description
I have a 2009 with the 2 piece chrome front bumper, can I just buy the bumper cover for 2013 and just swap it or I need the support and accessories also ??

Did you figure it out?
Looks good
Did the foglights wire up with the old harness? Or did you change it
Same
so did you update the list for what we need, because i think you said it might not need the rubber part cause the old one fits?
List is updated
Estodo,ahora si le puedo hacer una conversion a la ram👍🏻

hi! are you selling the original/factory front bumper? If so, I would be very interested in purchasing it.

You mentioned NOTHING about left and right side top bumper supports or showed any visuals of these being installed👎
