Simple question. I own a 2015 Sierra 1500, will a hood from a 2015 2500HD be a direct swap? I know the grills are larger, and everything below the headlights are different, but from what I can tell the hood appears to still have the same dimensions.

I've looked through 10 pages of threads about hood swaps but could not find what I thought would have been a simple question. I'm sorry if this has been asked and answered.

Thanks for your help.

Look on the gm performance forums. Those guys do HD swaps on the 2015s regularly.

I still haven't found out an answer, someone has to know. It looks like I might have to rent an HD and find out for myself. lol

You could just be the first one to try it and tell the world your experience

Well I've taken rough measurements and all appears to fit. The other idea I had was to 'test drive' or rent one and see if it swaps over before spending a grand or more on something that won't fit.

I'm not shy to fabrication work, my S10 has work done tip to tail and not a single thing is 'bolt on', but this is my daily driver I don't feel like messing around.

I don't have anything useful to add, other than I want the same thing you do. The hoods on the new HD Silverado's (with the build in scoop) look awesome, and would be a great visual addition to the 1500's.

That is pretty much what I was thinking. Looking at the '15 1500 and 2500 the hoods look like they have the same shape over the headlights and grill. The Silverado however look a bit different. I think the Silverado's upper grill shell is taller on the HD.
