Will a 71C5 body fit on a 72K5 frame

All Blazers are K5. Even the 2wd's. I see no reason why it would not fit. I am pretty sure they were all the same.

I have to ask. You're not parting a 2wd. to make a 4wd are you? The 2wd Blazers are pretty rare and that would even make me cringe. But ya, I'd have to say they're the same but can't back my claim with experience. Does the 2wd. tub have a high hump tranny cover ie. removable or is it a fixed part of the tub? I think I've heard the 2wd. had the low hump but it would fit anyways with some work

My 2wd Jimmy floor is the same as any 2wd pickup

Gee_Emm,

Just for information purposes, 2WD trucks came with the low and high hump tranny covers depending on transmission and engine combo's. I'm not the expert, but believe all 4wd trucks came with the high cover along with 2wd's that had big blocks or manual trannies ( not sure on 3 spd's) The 2wd non big block autos came with the low hump tranny covers.

oops forgot to add smallblock in there. Are all the high humps a bolt on pieces like a 4x4 hump or were there different floors made too, ie one piece non bolt on.

3spds use the low floor
