Default Rear bumper compatibility??

I have a 2000 4 door 4x4 blazer with the standard bumper, where it is indented by the liscense plate. My blazer was also recently in an accident causing the rear bumper to get bent up.

My question is.... I have a 1997 GMC jimmy 4 door 4x4 (in school shop which is locked for another week due to maintenence) with the standard flat faced bumper.... I don't have an opinion on which style is better.

Im just wondering will the bumper off the 97' jimmy directly fit onto the 2000 blazer without me having to drill new mounting holes?

The end caps would have to be swapped as well I believe. The step bumper is a bit deeper than the roll pan bumper. Then it's a matter of having the correct holes in the frame but I think your ok there.

I'm swapping the end caps too. They are both busted up from the accident. Thanks for the reply! Will have pics up of the busted up blazer and fixes here in the near future. Lol my truck is going to be a rainbow, black side skirts and rear bumper and maroon front clip. DIY painting in the near future I'm thinking.
