Suburban rear bumper bracket question

I have been searching for rear bumper brackets for my 87 suburban.
All i can seem to find are Blazer and Pickup brackets.
Are the rear brackets for a Suburban the same as something else?

I've seen these, but the ones listed for the rear say the are for a fleetside pickup. Would those work for a suburban?

Re: Suburban rear bumper bracket question

Well it doesn't say pickup, but it probably fits it too, and won't fit a stepside. I'm guessing same bracket fits your truck and the fleetside and they don't change the part description.

That is what I have been thinking too, just wanted to make sure they were the same.

The Suburban outer brackets are the same as pickup but the inner brackets are different due to the rear of the Suburban frame drops down at an angle and the pickups do not. Not sure about Blazers but assume they are like a Suburban.
