Re: Wheel wells for 67-72

Take a picture of the bed and old wheel well and send it. I will look to see if it will work. Thank you for the interest.

Re: Wheel wells for 67-72

I got to see both the wheel wells and this blazer in person over the weekend at the Pleasanton Good Guys show, and these wells are VERY clean. To an untrained eye, you'd never know they weren't stock. Very well done!

Also, the attention to details on the blazer were insane...

It was a pleasure to meet you Curt! Keep up the great work!

Re: Wheel wells for 67-72

Am I correct, that on the truck version it does not have this recessed part in the picture?

Also, do you see any issues with these on a lwb?

I was checking out your site, how much is shipping going to add for these, and do you have them in stock?

Re: Wheel wells for 67-72

How tall is the notch cover in the rear wheel wells. I will be running the Porterbuilt Mild rear dropmember and will need atleast 5" to cover the notch thanks.

Re: Wheel wells for 67-72

Will a 30" tall rear tire work with the rears?

Re: Wheel wells for 67-72

After talking with you on the phone, it seems the rear wells are more specifically designed for the blazer instead of the trucks, with the extra cutout in the back.

Is there any possibility in the future you could keep that part flush with the bed for the trucks? Unless I am missing something, it seems to be more fabrication to fit the blazer wheel wells to the truck to patch up those square holes.

If you need the extra height of the rear wheel tubs,... your rearend housing will also need a notch,... to cover it, when it comes up into the bed floor.
