What all parts do I need to swap my 85 grill and lights over to the 91 setup?

radiator support
headlamps
parklamps
wiring harness or lamp pigtails at the very least
grille and bezels
lower gravel shield (metal piece under the grille behind the bumper, painted to match the truck)

the air cleaner duct hookup on the support is a tad different if you actually use the stock air cleaner and stuff.

What is wrong with your 85?

the p.o. got into a front end accident, smashed up the bumper, pass fender,hood, grill and core support. i just ran across a complete front clip off an 83 gmc pickup and started putting it all on yesterday. i need some new core support bushings and bolts before i can button it all up.

If I can insert a shameless plug here, if you care about the quality of the lights rather than the aesthetics you might prefer this:
