You'll need a new pair of shades 'cause 88's are cooler.

I think you have nailed the big items.

Grab bar is different although you could re-drill your 87 to make it fit.

Don't forget dog bone and shock. 88/89 dogbone and 88/89 shock are different lengths. I'm about to do this same swap myself, except 86 to 88.

Shock will be fine, but dogbones are needed!

The seat latch is new to me...i hope i dont need to replace that!
