Help Identify Inner Sport Bumper Brackets - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I purchased these brackets off this forum. They were labeled as "Blazer rear inner brackets". I don't need these brackets, but before I try to sell them, I want to make sure they are advertised correctly. As I research, I have found photos that make me think these will fit sport bumper trucks also. Did 69-71 Blazers use the same inner brackets as fleetside trucks? Any info would be appreciated.

I think they are for coil spring trucks I have the same brackets and they don't fit a 1970 Jimmy only 1 bolt hole lines up

Outer brackets are all the same, but inners are different from leaf to coil springs

Someone please correct if wrong. What you are stating would only be true for SWB leaf vehicles. From what I understand the leaf sprung LWB trucks use the same brackets as the coil trucks. The rear shackle hanger is farther from the rear of frame and does not require a different bracket.

You may be correct, I just know leaf and coil use different inner brackets.
