I just last weekend installed one on my '90 burb that I found in stock at work.
You will need eight 5/16"x 1 1/4" coarse thread bolts, eight flat washers, and six 5/16" coarse thread "U" nuts.
I have tow hooks on my 'burb so I had to cut out four openings to clear the hooks and have access to them as well.

Re: Front factory air dam pics please

would really be interested in some pics of these on 78-80 trucks. just got the one from lmc for 80+ thinking i could make it work my 79 without much problem. i was wrong. so info from guys on where you got yours and how it worked for the older bumper style would be great!
