The Blazers have a disc brake rear, I believe the parts are a bolt on swap.

go here, s10forum.com, go into forums. then look through the "how to's" and then search the brake room. this isn't hard to do, its done all the time.

The late model Camaro-Firebird stuff is also a bolt on for your rearend. Vortech is correct about s10forum.com. You will find very detailed instructions there.

I have an '87 S-10 and converted mine using Cadillac parts. The later model S-10's are a much easier swap.
