could anyone tell me if a steering column out of a 90 blazer will fit a 87 pickup?

As far as mounting yes, but the pin position in the plugs might be off.
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs

83-87 should be the same, and depending on the donor, you should be able to just swap out the switch.
