Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build

The B-pillar lines up almost with the raised pads on the cargo floor. There are a few things that need to line up though and I'm sure there is are some nuances for each install (how many OEM parts vs. aftermarket):
  • bolts that hold cab floor (not pictured in this shot) to bedside
  • bolts that go up through the cargo floor to the capture nuts inside the bedside b-pillar post
  • bolts that hold support panel to bedside and cargo floor
  • bolts in torsion box end cap that connect cargo floor, bedside and support panel

Here is a better shot - older picture.

After building one of these up from scratch (on my 71 4x4 Blazer project) - I can see how these all rusted out in the B-pillar as there are several pockets for mud, etc. can hide and cause issues.
