I know for sure that 75 is full bolt un-bolt bed if needed. I not sure how far up they went pretty sure 84 has some panels that have some spot welds but are for the most part bolt new ones in. I think if you look around the tale gate area's you see for sure.
You can try the area's see if come out then look for spot weld if it not to badly rusted you or to much paint on them they show easy.
Maybe some other know how far passed 75 they went.
