Will a 87 K5 bumper bolt up to a 74 K5 rear stock bumper mounts ?
 
It won't directly bolt up, no.

I did, however, take an '81+ bumper from a CUCV and put it on a '74 K5 with some square tubing inside on the top bolt holes as a spacer. I seem to recall 1" or 1.25" being required for it to align more-or-less straight.

But, as mentioned, the '73-80 bumpers/frames don't directly interchange with '81+.
