Re: 73-87 vs 88-9?
Over the years, between me and my father, we've had about a dozen of these trucks ranging between 1970 and 1999.
Reliability and parts has been about the same for both generations. Rust is the biggest killer. Overall, extremely reliable.
If you are going 4wd, in the later years they moved to IFS, which gives a smoother ride. Not sure what year they changed over.
1996 they changed to Vortec heads.
You have a TH350, so I would certainly look for a truck with a 4 speed (700R4, or 4L60E) if you regularly drive over 50 mph.
