I like them better than the 81-82 grille.
It looks perfect on my truck. It's the look I am kind of going for. That's why I am keeping steel wheels.
No one believes me that my truck is a 2000. It makes me chuckle every time I tell someone.

Looks cheap to me. I hate those single headlights on a 400 more then the squares. It's the single most annoying thing about your truck. Even more so then your engine choice....lol.
Edit: part of it is because it's black.
I have seem some guys body color match them, those aren't so bad

Aw bummer. I actually like the single headlight stuff more. Not the Chevy grille but the GMC grilles
Seriously, Eric, I didn't realize that anyone liked that headlight and grill styling. The bumper holes would make good fog lights, but overall it's an odd look.
And I usually like odd looks.

Yeah at least it's just 2wd

Might as well fix the broken 4wd while you're there...
Well I do have a dodge divorce mount 205 but no mounting brackets or shifter stuff and also an 8 lug Dana 44 with 4:10 gears(not sure what gears this truck has yet). If I end up keeping it as a tow rig/family hauler then definitely getting 4wd but I will need to find a 60 for it.

I have always wanted to build a 4L80E with a gear vendor overdrive with a divorced 205.
You would need the length of truck you have. And you already have the 205...
Then you could put a doubler on it too...
Think of the gearing options....

I can help with your 4wd problem.
I needed at least 3 new tires out back. The fourth was a brand new linglong dingdong chinaman tire. I ended up scoring these 4 almost brand new BFG commercial ta tires 235/85R16 on dually rims for $300. They are 6 yrs old but stored inside, no cracking at all. Spares for a motorhome. The rims were nasty but a little elbow grease with a hose and red scotch Brite pad. I still need to paint them though.
