I found a 1982 720 factory service manual online. I am wondering what exactly are the differences between the 1980-1982? 

 

2 years.

L20B vs. Z22 engines

Front axles and differential are differently placed with L20B on the right and Z22 on the left front.

'80 and '82 pinion flanges have different splines. Driveshafts are different diameter.

As they are the transmissions won't swap.

Long bed 4x4 have 4.625 differential, Z22 were all 4.375.

'82 has self adjusting rear drum brakes the '80 does not.

'80 hood is unique to the '80 model year.

'80 fuse box and harness are unique to the '80 model year.

Brake masters are different.

'80 were all mechanical fuel pump. Z22 used both mechanical and electric pumps.
