Not exactly. The frame horns are different, as the 81 bumper has more angle at the bottom. The 81 bumper also has a peak in it, where the rest of your sheetmetal does not.

There's more to consider than the above mentioned info.
The 81 & later bumpers are designed for the 'tapered' 81-up fenders. The 73-80 model fenders don't taper so when you install the later model bumper it will contact the fenders & rub the paint off.
