In reference to the floor only I believe all the inner cab sub structures are the same from 72-93 but there may be a slight difference in the cab mounting channels heights. Those are listed as 72-80 and 81-93 in the replacement parts catalogs.

Measure to see if there are any differences before you decide. It may be due to style rather than height.

Thanks for the replies ! I wonder if it would sit lower on the frame or higher? I dont have an issue with a little later cab, I mainly would be concerned about body lines ,I.E ,if my doors and front fenders would match up and the lines on the bed would line up with the cab. I'm kinda new to the mopar trucks so any info is helpfull.
Thanks
