why not mount the truck on the blazer's frame? you may have to lengthen the frame a bit to get the wheels centered in the wheel wells....but with that age of truck the wheelbases may be pretty close already. this swap would be much easier than trying to fab all the parts required to mount the running gear to old frame.
