Not likely. The brackets and mounting holes on the frame will be different.

The bumpers and brackets are the same, just that there is no holes in the bumper for the turn signals / parking lights.
The frames are all the same from 1967 to 72' The parking lights in the 1967 - 70 are in the grill assembly and the 67 parking lights went out when you turned on the headlights. |

67-70 bumpers and 67-70 bumper brackets will bolt right on your '72 blazer. (You will have problems if you try to use a 67-70 bumper with 71-72 brackets.)

Mine is 4WD, so it will be difficult for me to give you the correct measurement. I have a '68 front clip on my '72 Jimmy

Re: 68 c10 bumper and brackets on a 72 blazer???
The give away is the side marker lights in that Blazer and the chrome bezels.
All 67's did not have side marker lights and most did not have chrome around the grill and light bezels. They were painted. The frames were all the same. The bumper had a bracket that bolted to the top of the frame that looked like a small angle iron with a hole on each end. The bumper brackets might have been longer to go more towards the edge of the bumper because the turn signals were slightly away from the edge of the frame on each side and the brackets had to be moved further over to make room for the light housings. The bottom hole in the frame bolted directly to the bumper the way I remember it. |
