From a Suburban/Blazer: Outers are the same, inners are not the same.
BTW: Step bumpers for a pickup are nothing like the factory bumper, so none of the brackets will work.

Okuma,
 Chris is right,outer brackets work,inners from the burb do not..but can be easily fabbed,the are simply a flat plate with 4 holes drilled in it.. bolt your bumper up into position using the outer brackets and make a carboard template to make the inners..if you got a way to cut a little steel and drill some holes,it'll be no problem ;D
