Need some '72 Blazer Info
 

i know a friend that has a '72 blazer for sale. not the best shape, but i think i can pick it up for a steal. i'm not too interested in much aside from the axles. i own a jeep, and i was wondering what axles are under this blazer? what are their dimensions (width)? are they 1/2 ton axles? this blazer does have a straight 6 in it. any help would be great!!! also, what gears could i expect to see in these? thanks a ton!!!

oh, one more question... it's a 72, straight 6, stick (on the tree, i think), 4wd, no top (well, it's homemade). i think i could pick it up for $200. is that a deal?? or no?? the front clip is in pretty nice shape. rest is pretty rusty. thanks again!

The blazer should have 1/2 ton axles (if it is stock). Dana 44 up front and a Corporate 12 bolt in the rear. With a six, your probably looking at 3.08's, maybe 3.73's.

If it has some good parts on it, you can probably part it out and make more than $200. Seats, seat brackets, windsheild frames, etc are all in demand.

One more thing, please fill out your profile. We can help you better if we all know where in the world you are located.

thanks for your info!!! you wouldn't happen to know what the width of these axles would be, do you?? thanks again!!!

I don't know. There is info on http://coloradok5.com/specs.shtml but I don't see the axle width.

GOOD SITE!!! THANKS!! say, one more - how many lug are the wheels? what's the bolt pattern? thanks a ton!

bryan

4x4 wheels are 6 lug,5.5" between lugs.

for $200 I don't thing you can go wrong

a 6cyl shoud be 3:73 if they are stock
