2011 Front End Swap to 2014 or Higher

Sorry if this is a repeat but I couldn’t find another thread about this.

I’m thinking about swapping my 2011 front end to a 2014 or higher front end so I can install a Southern Style Offroad bumper with wings. I love that bumper and the clearance it gives plus the aggressive look is amazing!

Has anyone done thins before? Obviously I would need to switch out more than just the bumper. We’re talking head lights and grille. Would all the components line up well?

Thanks!

Easy peaasy...I acquired all of the parts needed to swap them over used. I have about roughly $700 in the whole conversion. All used parts. Took me about 5-6 months to get them together. Did the swap in about 4hrs. Everything is a direct bolt fit

Shame. IMO pre facelift is a better look. To each his/her own.

I like my 2011 Trail front end but really want a Victory Blitz. Thinking about a swap but also thinking about other ways to keep it and just get a better fit for the blitz. There arent many options now for a 2010-2013 bumper w/winch.

I think C4 makes one now, looked pretty nice. But yeah, limited options for those years for sure.

All of the slimline style ones look pretty much the same to me. I went with SSO back when they were pretty much the exclusive option, but if I was doing it again I would buy the cheapest one from any of the dozen reputable companies that make them now.

victory bumper

Victory is working on a 10-13 full front bumper but has put it on the back burner due to Covid.
I too am waiting on one.
