Sounds like a lot of work, including a lot of customization. The whole dash will require reconfiguring since the 88+ trucks and 92+ SUV's are redesigned inside & out.

Best advice I can give is to get a copy of the factory wiring manuals for both your 84 and the donor 95.

No one here has undertaken such a task. I am going to be swapping in a '91 dash/wiring/etc into my '74 K5, but they are essentially the same body styles.
