Re: front clip upgrade

On mine it has the 86 radiator/core support still in place, and all of the 96 parts bolted onto it with no modifications. I don't see any reason why the 88 radiator won't bolt up to the 96 core support.

As for the front bumper, I'm not sure, I haven't got that far yet on mine. I figured on having to fabricate some brackets of some sort, I saw on my donor that the front end of the frame was a little different, like it was formed into a squiggly section on the end?
