87' to 73' front end swap.

I have a quick question and I'm sure it's been asked but I couldn't find an answer. I have a 87' duel headlight burb power everything that I want to swap a 73' style front clip onto. I was wondering with the electrical for the headlight if there's a easy plug and done method from duel to single bulb or if I'd actually have to rewire some of it? Thanks.

I haven't done this swap but from what I've read, guys are getting the wiring harness for the headlights off the bulkhead fitting when they get the fenders/core support/etc. If you already have the other stuff, PM gmachinz. He makes a lot of wiring harnesses for these trucks, stock and custom, and if a plug and play adapter can be made he can probably do it.

Thanks. I've rewired a few jeeps before so that's not an issue I'm just looking to see if there's a quicker way I was overlooking.
