Compatible parts Blazer and C10 pickup

[Onalaska Blazer]

I have a question on Parts compatibility.

It looks as though all interior / Dash parts should be interchangeable. Is the AC system, Radiator, Grill, front bumper, hood, engine components.

Could you guys with more experience answer this.. ?


Thank you.

Yes they should be the same

yep, most stuff interchanges with the trucks. Truck doors can be modified to work too. Fortunately most of the Blazer specific parts are being reproduced as well.

My new project

Hello all.

This is the new project: 1971 Blazer 4x4, Pb, PS, AC, V8 and Original Color is Hugger Orange, has lockout hubs.

Picked her up for $2200. Body is pretty clean frame straight, and only rust so far is kick plates. Top has damage but I will find a replacement.

Did I do OK ?

compatability ?

The Blazer and the C10 C20 fenders, interior parts bumpers and all that stuff should fit... OK

the Blazer is a 71, would the parts from a 72 pickup still work. ?

Yes. For the most part '71 and '72 are identical.

Compatibility

Does that just go for Blazer and C10 for 1968 to 1972 or does it include C20 also

 

[K85 Octane]

C10 and C20 frames are different, thicker, and small differences between crossmembers. Other than that, same. Don't forget 1967

 

[ashman]

There are some differences in the front clips from earlier years, but the '71 and '72 are basically the same.

A lot of the components are common between all years and trucks and blazers but not everything.

 

[ekajkrats]

67-68 trucks (no blazer those years) front clip are different than the 69-72s trucks and blazers.

compatibility

OK thank you, So if I get a donor truck 1969 or above C10, then almost all dash, AC, heat, PS, PB front fenders and much more should fit.

What about the tail light trim on the Pickup, that should be same as rear lights on 71 Blazer correct.

Just trying to understand applications.

Pretty sure that is correct.

You can add them as attachments to your post by clicking the "manage attachments" button below the post window.

The most common way is to host the pictures somewhere on the net (most people use photobucket) and then link them in your post. You link them by placing the image location in image tags, like this:
