I have an opportunity to pick up a like new Westin Bull Bar for my '96 2500 for under a $100. The only problem is that it was made for a '04 2500. I checked the Westin website and they list different model numbers for each year so I am assuming there are some differences.

Is anyone familiar enough with these two different generations to know if I can make this work? I don't mind having to drill a few new holes in the bar if that is all that is called for but don't want to mess with my frame.

Thx!

 

With some fabrication it will probably fit. Keep in mind the shape of the front ends are totally different. Not sure how it will look.

 

I checked online and the frame dimensions look similar. I think there might be problems based on the cosmetic differences between the two generations, however. I wrote to the folks at Westin but never got a reply...
