Technically my trucks an 88. But 88 was a weird year, and I have a hard time finding parts. So I always use 87 as a year??

you may have to make some.. but any brackets from 73-87 should work or 88-91 k5 or burban

I'm lil confused too... why wouldn't they work? k5's used the same frame/body and suspension from 80's style all the way til 91 didn't they? Didn't go IFS or anything til 93-4ish.

88 -98 trucks are different than k5s and burbans from 88-91.. in 92 blazers went ifs and the new body style like the 88-98 trucks... if you find brackets for a 73-87 truck they will work on your k5 the 88-91 k5s are the square body like 73-87 trucks :) I love square chevys
