600 frontend interchange

[mackdog]

I just picked up a 611b and the front boluster is cracked and has an old weld repair, it is still holding, what I want to know is a newer 530 or 630 front is interchangable, dont think I will find many 611's in the junkyard, but maybe more newer ones may be avaviable, anyone know if they are.

What do you consider the front bolster. The cast nose peice or the cast bracket that the axle tube is attached to with the pivot pin, or the axle tube. I know where there are two salvage units.

the cast piece that bolts directly to the front of the engine, I guess that is the whole piece that is all the way around the bottom of the grille screens, any way it has been welded right where it attaches to the front of the motor. let me know if there is some salvage units where you are at. thanks. also it is a 611B narrow front if that makes any difference.
