The latch hardware is different.
It may be modify able but I do not know.
The sdl hood is steel, the Sd hood is aluminum too...

I "think" it will work if you get all of the parts. 85 & newer has the single pull in the center of the grill. 84 and older had the double latch. The hood and hinges are a direct fit. You need to work out the opening system.
