Default s10 ZR2 flares

Anyone know if these are interchangable with Blazers? Might be a good score since this guy put a 350 in and blew it up, and is too lazy to switch the old 93 Vortec

Front is, rear is not. I believe they could be cut to fit in the rear though. I think they are only longer..

I was looking at threads for factory fender flares from jimmys going onto pickup trucks, and they said that the jimmys would be too short for the truck. (first gens though)

so if its the same for second gens, then the truck ones would be too long for a blazer.

Hmmmmm.... Alright. Thanks for the info Rich. From what I've seen the wheel wells are pretty close on both, but I'll look into it a bit more in the days to come.

If you're talking about the ZR2 fender flares, the Blazer flares are deeper than the S10 flares, and have different mounting clips in the rear. The ZR2 S10 rear flares use a long round arched metal bracket that follows the wheel arch. The Blazer ZR2 rear flare uses a series of clips on the fender that the flare bolts onto.

You can do it. By the description ^^^^ i used s10 flares...i refinished the metal brackets and it worked. I did a how to on it...beware though you have to trim the rear wheel wells but it can be done.
