can you get the round-headed bolts off the shelf?
also, is there a way to get inside the blazer hatch to replace the metal backing plates at the mounts?

CStanley - You probably can get the bolts, but I'm not sure where. I'm not familiar with blazer hatch. I'm sure you can do this but you will probably have to do some fiberglassing. You will want to use a different strut though, these provide about 75 lbs of lifting force apiece. I'm sure you could get by with half of that on the Blazer since it's fiberglass. Here's a link to the site that helped me figure out which strut I wanted to use. It let's you choose the extended and compressed lengths, and then tells you the particular amount of force provided for the one you picked out. It took me a while searching, but it wasn't that hard.
