Suburban Bumper?

Does anyone know if a rear bumper from the same year suburban fit my 84 k-10? I have a lline on a perfect bumper and brackets for cheap and need to know if it will fit.

i do NOT believe it will fit. Somoene gave me the trailer hitch that came from a burb and it wouldnt fit on the pickup as the chassis is wider by a good four to six inches

Bumper, yes.
Brackets, no.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Ditto on what Scoti said. All the bumpers are the same. Brackets are different. A Blazer will have the same bumper as the Burb just to expand your options.

The burbs frame rails curl @ the very end of the rail, trucks are cut off flush. Since the trucks are cut square, they require a bracket that curls the way the burb frame does so everything will bolt together in the same holes. Hence, the bumpers interchange, but trucks require 2 inner brackets that burbs don't need. They both utilize the same outer brackets.
