BLAZER rear axle

[matuva]

Would a 1995-1999 CHEVY SUBURBAN SILVERADO 1500 4X2 REAR END AXLE ASSEMBLY 3.73 from a gasser fit on my 1994 4x4 Full size BLAZER with a 10 bolts rear end axle 3.73 8.5" ring ?

Mine is "bent" on left side and need to be replaced...

is your axle housing bent or just the shaft?

 

[matuva]

The housing itself, unfortunately

Both are 6 lug, both are 1/2 ton, same ratios, so it should fit fine. The only issue I can think of to double check is the parking brake cable stuff.

You will need to check the spring perch locations on both axles. They could easily be different since the axles are from different vehicles. Not hard to change spring perch locations if you have welding ability, or know someone who does.

any place where I can find a good 10 bolts / 6 lugs 3.73 one?

Preference goes to a POSI, but would consider an open one
