shouldn't there be a sticky for the different body styles
from 71 to 03? would up us when we're looking up used parts.
I know my 98 looks a lot like my 94 used to look.. so i'm not sure what series
my van is in.. and it'd help a lot of people like me, I think.j

78 Dodge changed tail lights, side markers and recessed the door handles, 79 came the rest of the body

I just bought window vents that fit from 79 through 97. My van now has a A-frame from a 79. The lamps and front end body panels of the front of my van will interchange only form 94 -97. So the problem is that some parts are limited to a few years and others will interchange over a longer period of time. But all these vans fit under the B-series of van.

so does anyone know in which series the 98 falls into as far as being unchanged ?

98-03 interchanges easily, they are the last of the B-series edition. I have not seen what exactly changed on the body style but I have been told by two salvage yards that the barn doors will not interchange. My part time job has one of the 98 and the tail lamps look like they would interchange with the 94-97 series. I know the door chalks change out between them.
Any Dodge dealership can tell you if a part you need is interchangeable with other year vans.
