The frame horns are different, the mounting holes won't be in the same spot. It can be done if you're willing to drill new holes for your frame configuration though.

Re: 87 bumper on a 78?

front bumper, doesn't look right when you mix and match the front ends and bumper. example..

old 73-80 front end with an 81-87 bumper or vice versa.

Back bumpers, not too bad, should be a direct swap on rears I'd think.
