I think the difference is the 54-55 have a indent/holes in the lower front portion to create clearance for the 54-55 grille.
here is a google search photo of a 54-55 fender with the said indent... here is a scetch of each from LMCTrucks.com |

In the picture if you look at the opening for the grill by the headlight the metal is curved from vertical to horizontal. The 53 and earlier there is a 90 degree at that spot. They will bolt to the cab the exact same but the grills are not a direct bolt on.
