You can be really sure the bike is from 87-88. I suppose it's possible they might have been on a few 86 and 89 leftovers- but 87-88 is when those were used. On one hand, it adds a bit of pain in the azz complexity to maintain- but they're cool and unique and pretty burly looking brakes!
Best of luck and enjoy that bike!
Specialized did spec them on the smaller sized Stumpjumpers in 1986. I have an orange sport with a set.
