Re: 79 to 81 differences
Cab is different. The 73-80 doens't have provisions to mount the hood hinges in the cowl and the wiper mounts with different number/location of bolts. Otherwise, if it is 4x4 vs 4x4, they are identical. If 4x4 vs 4x2, the trans tunnel is different.
crossmember: 3/4 don't use rubber bushings like a 1/2T does. Balljoints are different as is the spindle. Will it bolt in place of a 1/2T yes if you get all of it. Steering box is the same.
