Suburban body interchangability

I have a 73 burb that has pretty bad roof rot. Found an 84 body with very minimal rust for free locally. From my untrained eye, the bodies look the same, i plan on putting my doors into this body. Will everything be good, or is this deal too good to be true?

Yes, the bodies are the same except the front end sheet metal is different.

Re: Suburban body interchangability

They are both the square body design, only real difference being the front clip. Frame mounts should all be the same, even up to 1991
