Might just have to drill a few holes to mount themThese are for sale locally. The seller is not sure what they fit but thinks 67-72 K5. This is the only photo. Do they look familiar? Would they fit my '83? They are 5' long which seems right.
I had a set of the Smittybilts for 73-91 on my truck a million years ago. The brackets on the left bolt to the forward hanger for the rear spring, and IIRC the ones up front go to the frame.
Getting the back ones aligned was a challenge, as I recall. I'd take your truck to them, and put the one up against the spring hanger and see if the front lands on the frame in a place that you can drill without having to remove everything.

No worries. Looks like the ones I had mounted to the body mount up front:
and then the spring hanger looks like this. Note I got the holes wrong once and had to redrill them, doh.
These are both driver's side, for reference. Hope that helps.
Based on that, I think those are not for 73-87, and would take some fab work to fit up to your truck. That's an educated guess.
