Does xtreme ground effects fit a LS 2 door
 
I just got my Blazer a few days ago, I got a 2002 LS 2 door. I was thinking about buying some xtreme ground effects off ebay but I just want to know if it will fit. The ebay seller told me they will not fit, a local mechanic told me they will. I am mainly wanting the fender flares off the extreme, I dont really care about the other parts.
Thanks in advace!

This is unrelated but I want some of these too but can't find them; slotted tail light covers.https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/blazerf...19c8fb26a2.jpg

Front will, rear I'm unsure of, and the side skirts will not without bonding the two pieces together.

edit: before I lifted my truck, I was going to drop it a little and get a set a modify it to first my 4 door.

Hey thanks for the quick reply!
Yeah I don't want the side skirts, I just want the flares over the wheels, don't care about the extreme bumpers either, however, if the extreme rear bumper is required to make the flares fit then that's what I will do. I'm not going to lower this or mess with the suspension, it rides smooth.

I want some flares, tires, tail light covers, push bar up front and I'm calling this one done.

If it's only the flares, you should be able to get s10 flares and they should fit.

not 100% but believe so.

I've got ZR2 flares if you could use those.

You're 100% sure they will fit?
How much do you want for them?
Could you put them up on eBay or something?

Zr2 flares will fit

The flares are off a 2 door. If you've never installed them before you'll have to figure out something to hold the rear ones on as they used metal brackets to attach the flare. I'm not sure I have those, I'd have to check. Just finding ones you can get off without the plastic tabs breaking off is half the battle. If you're really interested send me your email address and I can check my stash and see what all I do have for them. Don't post your email address here.

The rear flares, I installed mine, although i have a four door I'm sure itll work for you aswell, I cut the tabs off and riveted the flare to the lip on the inside.

I just notice your post about the tail light covers. I have the same ones, i haven't been able to find any info on them, got lucky and got them with my old brush guard as a package deal. Let us know if you come across anything. I have yet to find anything about it's been 2+ years

The fronts use a ZR2 style of fender. I would assume that you'd use those if you want ZR2 flares up front. If not I have no idea how you'd attach them. I checked and I do have the set. The fronts are a bolt on fit for the front fender if they are ZR2 fenders. You'll have to get inventive for the rears and the fronts for that matter if you don't use the ZR2 specific fenders.

I just ordered a package from ebay, salvaged Blazer extreme rear bumper, all four fender flares, rocker panels and metal brackets and the center console and shifter for a few hundred dollars. I'll keep you all updated.

DonL 04-20-2020 08:37 AM

Sounds like a good deal. Will be keeping an eye out for your update.

Thanks for the comments.
I'm new to the forum and not familiar with the etiquette here, you all seem like pretty cool folks. I don't know if I should request a mod to retitle this thread, (my restoration) or if it's good if I go ahead and throw a few more random topics in here? Just kind of thinking out loud and sharing details of the Blazer.

I've only driven the Blazer a few times, went to my cusions garage and had him look it over, he threw on some wiper blades, some kind of vacume pump deal and a hose clamp and said, "go drive it and see how it does." That was Saturday. Yesterday I didnnt drive it, I spent the day sanding down the thick plastic trim around the back windows, that stuff was all bubled up like it had severe sun damage, don't really know what caused it, I'll fix it though, I'm planning to paint them with bedliner, and the flares and rocker panels with the bed liner and the top of the blazer is messed up so I'll bed liner it too.

I'm hearing a creak pop from the front floorboard, I'll find out soon but I think it's ball joints. Should not be no big deal.

Heare is a funny one, when I first got in it, I thought, 'whoever had this before me had some serious body oder'. It looks great inside but man does it stink. Last night it rained here. This morning I went out to run some errans and got in the Blazer to find a huge water puddle in the passenger floorboard, so I've found the source of the smell, it's rotten carped smothered in mold. So I'm going to have to get me some new carpet for the front and figure out where the leak is coming from. Are these vehicles know for this? The weather stripping looks good. I might have to get in the thing and have someone hit it with a water hose and see if I can figure out how the water is getting in.

I'll get you all some photos of what the outside of this vehicles loks like now, and I'll do some after photos too when I get done.

I would start a separate build thread in the build section for all the little odds and ends you do to your blazer. We like to try and keep threads topic related. We also like to help out as much and when we can.

I have some bubbles arou d my windows too, I think it's just from water soaking in and swelling/rotting the inside of them. And for the leaks, there is a good number of blazers/Jimmy's that leak in that area, my mother has a 2000 jimmy that leaks in the same are, where as my 99 blazer hasnt
