Not unless you want to to use 73-76 door panels, which won't cover the holes in the lower section of the door.

No you cannot.  Not only do the door panel differ, but the 73-76 door guts are different than the 77+.  The window crank shaft is shorter, and the roller channels that are spot welded to the inside of the door are different in size.  Ask me how I know all this.  :(

You can use everything in the 77-91 doors from the 75 doors.The window regulator arm for your windows will be shorter (?)  then the 77-91 style. Other than that and the door panels everything else should be a direct bolt in..

thanks
