Fit yes is should, but I would look at the TG latches on the 87 tailgate. Are they set up like the old style latch (in diagram and 1st couple of pics or for pins like a door striker? I think an 87 TG is a pin latch system. Also the body lines will not like up at all.
87-96 tailgate striker....mounted in the bed side.
