Plan is for 5 lug, so I can do the torq thrusts. Any 12-bolt or 10-bolt axle from 71-87 will slide right in and are readily available cheap. Even new replacement axles are relatively inexpensive. I have pondered using the 6-lug conversion discs and 15” wheel vintiques steelies with dog dishes, but the 20” TTs just look so good...

azproperformance.com has it for $645 shipped. I went direct through DEG and added a second crossmember for $100, which will locate above/near the spring perches to minimize framerail flex. Also got a set of their front shock relocators for $80.
Jason at DEG was great to talk to, answered all of my questions and then some, sent me a bunch of pics, and offered free shipping. Satisfied customer so far.

Yes, what’s taking so long? I’ve not finished three Blazers in the time you’ve not finished 1
