Default 2001 jimmy diamond edit running boards

so i dont know if this is the right spot.
but im looking into purchasing some diamond edition running boards for my 2001 4dr 4x4 blazer.... but they look like they attach on the side

i dont see those holes on my frame. and i found the running boards on gmpartsdirect but they dont show any brackets. where these drilled into the frame? also the center mount seems longer

i guess will these fit the blazer or pass them up?

They should fit, but may require drilling...

Not unless you do not check both sides of the frame for clearance first.

By clearance, I mean that there is nothing on the other side that you really do not want to drill through (brake lines, fuel lines, fuel filter, gas tank, etc). You need to put the running boards up there and mark where you want the holes to be, then check on the other side to make sure you are not going to drill through something that you should not.
