Is this really from a 73-75 blazer?

Or is it possible for our years.? I have a swing out in the garage and it looks similar except for the gas can holder.

The difference isn't going to be in the main loop, it is going to be in the brackets that mount to the body. Board member NUBOMB tried to have some of the brackets that go inside the body manufactured and the cost was astronomical. Luckly, another board member (Mr. Freeze - I haven't seen him here in a while) found his still inside the bed skin and sent them to him. Without both the outside and inside brackets, a swing away tire carrier is almost worthless.
