Default Flairside help

I have a 84 f150 and it needs a new bed. The whole thing is rotted out. It's a flairside and I want to keep that. But I can't find anywhere that sells the side panels. I found flairs and the front panel tail gate etc. Will any year prior sides fit it? Thanks

if your talking a short box then I can say I've been there. I ended up buying a donor truck for 3500 and came out with a better project truck and now have alot of spare parts.

Sure have they have zero inner fenders for my year class and being made oof plastic teh section hold the battery is brittle and failed. I may have to resort to fiber glassing what I have left.
