wrong first you need the 86 inner steel bumper and Im stuck currently on how to attach that to the front bumper supports, it doesnt all line up the way you would think

So as not to discourage people from using the search feature and for future reference let me add to this thread. It sounds to me like your doing the opposite of the ops project...going to a 4 eye from a euro nose. Which would require a steel (or aluminum) bumper reinforcement vs the fiberglass design used in 87-93. Either way if the bumper support is an issue just replace them with the correct match for the bumper reinforcement your using. They're held on with a single bolt through the frame just ahead of the shock tower.
