will 1980 door panels fit an 86 or are the doors too different?

yes. Make sure you change the inside door handles too.

door shells are the same on pickups 77-87

however,

the door panel trim levels are 77-80 and 81-87

I would think they will fit, you may have a minor fabrication for fit such as the inner door handle.

I am in the process of putting my 80 door panels on a 81 door. Where i think I will have to change my 80 handle with the 81 handle.
