Years 84-88 were the same body style so most of the body panels could be changed from those years to yours. If i'm wrong someone will correct me but i'm pretty sure those years will work

84-88 is correct. The fenders are different for 2wd and 4wd. I read something yesterday that said 89 runners have that body style too.

Plenty of options for seats. Many of them more comfortable than the factory seats. Lots of threads for that.

I would reccommend getting new door hinges instead of using old one. They're pretty cheap on e-bay and old hinges are bound to have play. I bought 2 new door shells from an after market supplier for $200cdn each. I then bought 2 used doors, power everything, $100 for both. Fiberglass fenders are about $120 each. New steel fenders are less then $100 up here.

If you fill in your location, there's bound to be people (like me) who have parts trucks they're willing to sell stuff off of. This is a pretty nice group here.
