 | Body parts interchange- what will fit an '83 I have an '83 K-20, I have heard that post '87 doors will fit(wiring and stuff, is different, if you have any). I am wondering if post '87 doors do fit and what other body parts may. if the doors fit, how much different are the beds? I figure it will be easier to find a clean post 87 bed than a pre 87 bed. I tried searching the forum but didn't find any answers. |

 | i beleive 81 to 87s are very similar in body design and beleive thoase years are interchangable, wouldn`t be surprised if an 73 to 87 bed would bolt on, prior to 81 not sure if the boxes were very slightly cosmeticaly differrent |

| search www.car-part.com for the parts you want to interchange. If you put your year in it will show which years will fit. |

| I know most 78-87 parts will fit, I heard that 88 and newer doors will fit, wiring and such is different, wondering if 88 and newer beds will fit. |

| 88 and newer are completely different animals (unless you go with 88-91 suburbans) 73-87 everything from the doors back will interchange, 81-87 the front fenders etc.. are interchangeable.
