82-83 are different, at least for 4wd.
The beds are like that for 79-88 for 2wd trucks.
79-83 2 and 4wd trucks had this bed.

Trucks in 1982 got a tailgate had a center latch instead of one on each side. The double throws are awesome, wish all pickup beds had them. Great for preventing the sides from splaying out from WilderNest constant pushing. I also forgot, trucks got rectangular headlights in 1982. So the grill and bed on that correctly match.its definitely 79-81. the grill looks correct to me.
