missing hatch, parts

[polock07]

hello


i'm new to the Blazer owners club but have wanted to be in the club for years. I recently bought a 1972 K-5 Blazer, the vehicle is beautiful but it is in need of a rear hatch, and all the brackets hinges and everything can anyone help me, I'm currently in Iraq and my Blazer is in Oregon i want it to be ready when i go on my midtour leave, if any one has one they can part with i know it will be expensive and so will the shipping but it's the missing part to my blazer. I do know that i can get a reproduction rear hatch on Manes website and glass and rubber on LMC but it's the hinges, brackets and locking parts that i can't find.


thanks jason

I've got the hinges...



Send me your address and they're yours....free, zilch, nada. Read this post and you'll know why, it's kind of a new courtesy thing that's going around the board. Try and keep it going, we're trying to see how many people will do it.

Here is something else for free, good advice.


DO NOT buy a repro hatch unless you want a major headache and a $550 piece of fiberglass that doesn't fit.

After personally hearing this same type of comment from from three different people who have bought, I would do a little bit of research on these re-pro blazer hatches before spending the $$$.

I am also in Oregon and you can look me up when you get home, I would most likely have a complete hatch and top setup fs/available.

Ok my dumb question for the day. Are the hatches the same for a double wall, and a single wall top? I had a hatch off of a double the other day to clean up, and replace the weather strip. The darn things seem heavy

All hatch hardware is the same for SWT or DWT
