Should be no problem at all. Hang on to the old one if it is in good shape. Can be used for more hood vent experiments!!

Yes, the newer hood sans Ford emblem is a direct swap as is the grill.
My van is a '99 and I swapped both the hood and grill.

just to add to others swapping experiences...

to achieve a shaved front end, i put a 95 grill (and composite lights) on my 03. i needed the headlight bucket from the 95 and it all just bolted right up. the 03 bucket wouldnt allow the 95 grill to bolt up properly. headlights were no issue with either bucket.

All business up front, and a party in the back, just like a mullet.

Anyone know if I can swap an 03-07 grill and hood into a 96? Is it a bolt on type swap for both?

Anything that I would need to do to the headlights...?besides getting better ones from vantage optics of course...

It's a direct swap for everything up until they went to the new front end.

Not true*! There’s a couple different hoods where the only real difference is where the hood latch fits. It’s only about 1” different, but you need the right one.

*might be different year than OP mentions, I’m not clear on which ones are the different ones.
