Nice to see this video. I have an ‘05 1500 Hemi with 72k original miles , bought it with 28 mi on it. Has treated me so very well and no major mechanical(except recalled parts ) issues throughout the years. Take care and stay safe out there!

I got an 05 as well but mine has a 4.7 it has 186k miles and still runs like a dream my grandpa bought it brand new in 04 and I bought it off him last year and the trucks never had a single issue besides recalls and the oil pressure sensors going bad and it doesn’t even have the 4.7 tick from the timing chain tensioner but if it ever starts to get it as soon as I get the chance it’s commin apart and I’ll put new timing chains and tensioners on it and surprisingly it has little to no rust the only rust on the truck is a little on the doors on themselves but it isn’t visible unless the doors open and the front bottom of the bed on the passenger side is starting to bubble up but I’ve seen a kit to put fiberglass bedsides on then but idk about putting fiberglass bedsides on a truck that I daily drive and haul stuff in

This is the video that I've been looking for cuz I would like to do this to my new 2nd gen I just got for my channel. New supporter to help support the growth

Thanks for sharing bro. That will be for sure part of my build thanks again

I like the front ends of the earlier third gen and also the later ones

Damm man... That looks good, I may wanna do that my self

Cool to see a walk through! I'm actually going backwards from a 2007 front end to the earlier one. Modern truck comforts, newer engine with the updated manual trans but closer to the original ram styling IMO. The front end you put on the Dodge was actually borrowed from the UK Sterling Trucks program. It was on Euro Sterling vans too. Its next to impossible to find Sterling parts now.

I love the fact he has the club steering wheel lock on LOL

Good job young brother.

Im happy this swap is easily possibly

Thanks for the video I was literally just thinking about if I could take the front end from a hemi and pit it on my 04 cummins I was actually looking for a 4th gen bumper on a 3rd gen video because I just bought a 4th gen bumper and wanted to know if I can use the stock mounts off the 3rd gen to put it in and I found this video

yo you got it looking good ✍

Bro so I’m trying to do this do I need a whole 06 to 08 bumper or do I just need 06 to 08 bumper cover

Did you ever wire up the new power doors? I’m not a fan of my manual doors and would love a video on how to do that.

lol im looking to swap an 06 to an 05 front end on a megacab, i find that newer front end foul looking.

So, if I'm not wrong, to swap the front (if you have a early 3rd gen) is just the fenders, the front lights, the front grill and the upper bumper, correct?

@30tman

Fenders, headlights, headlights pigtails, grill, and bumper/bumper cover.

So it was all completely bolt on? I have a 051500 5.7L that is working on getting a 12v put into her, figure i might as well do the front end conversion while she's down.

Kenniedey Lewis the speaker plugs are there but for the power options you need the chassis side plugs/wiring or to wire up your own ignition power.

been there done it, you need the cab wiring harness if you have a 04 you need a 03-05 cab wiring harness with the same airbags options and belts you cant use a 06 wiring with an 04, you could but you would need to change the whole underdash wiring and modules, wich is a pain, in 06 they switched to Can bus system thats why
