The only thing that may be awkward is the front marker light on the truck. It could be out of place but shaving it would solve that problem.

how about the rear fender?

The rear marker lights stayed the same for all years so they will line up just the same.

I should line up just like the one in the picture. Even on at 82.

Front fenders are shaped totally different.

You're gonna have to swap doghouses for that to work. But that's not hard. All else will be fine

Front fenders and marker lights are different. Plus the trim pieces that attach to the dually flare are not made in the aftermarket and are hard to find in my opinion. The other bed pieces can be cut from a regular long bed fleetside.
