Most of the trim on the earlier model trucks where narrow, that's why it was stated that it might not fit.
The narrow was common on the 73-80.
The wide trim was common from 81-87.

I actually disagree with this. It has been much harder for me to find the narrow bands than the wide ones. The narrow was just a lower trim level than the wide ones. As far as the openings go, a wide early one WILL fit the newer tailgates but the opening on the newer gates is a little wider and it doesn't look quite right. I ran an early wide band on my later tailgate until I got the right year tailgate.
