Parts cross over
First post. Been lurking but now have reason.
Bought an 83. Rough.
Need to know compatibility between years. I've seen some items listed from 80-86 and some lited up to the 96 model. I know some things are specific to some years and once they changed to fuel injection things became different. Those are not items needed. But what about a tailight lens. I really like the smooth ones on the later years.
For instance they hacked up the wiring harness under hood. Still had the ignition box but they had installed a single point distributor. Well now i have to try to decipher. Etc.
For some reason the 80-86 models are rare around here in junkyards. Trucks in general are tough to find.
You would think in Houston.
Again the question. Is there a reference for compatibilty of parts from year to year?
