Yes but as we al know blazers have alot of built in rigity between the bed and the cab. If you just shorten a truck frame and weld the body together their is a good chance of broblems down the road at that joint. By using a blazer tub for the foundation you start off with a tied together system that will not give you any problems down the road if done right. I know you can do it right with a truck set up but you will spend twice as much time and effort for not as good of a result in my opinion.
