HISTORY
1973-1980 Blazers used the gear-driven part-time NP-205 transfer
case (mostly mated to the SM465 manual transmission and some
TH350s) or the chain-driven full-time NP-203 transfer case (mated
to the TH350 automatic) and DANA-44 front/12-bolt rear axle
combination through 1980. Starting in 1981 used the chain-driven
NP208 transfer case (NP241 after 1988) with front 10-bolt/rear
10-bolt axle combinations until 1991. There is an overlap of
12-bolt rears into the early '80s, while the 10-bolt front axle was
phased into production in the late 1970s.
The second generation K5 models incorporated the rear hatch glass
and tailgate into a single unit, which allowed the glass panel to
retract inside of the tailgate by use of a manual crank mounted on
the tailgate or an electric motor activated by a key-operated
switch on the tailgate and a dash-mounted switch. The weight of the
large glass panel was rumored to be a liability as the manual crank
gears wore prematurely and the electric motor was prone to frequent
overheating and subsequent failure. This also included the electric
motor drive cable which goes to the window regulator to the motor
(similar in design to a speedometer cable), which usually would
fail under heavy abuse. Another feature of the K5 Blazer tailgate
was the safety switch connected to the electric motor which
prevented the rear window from being raised if the tailgate was
unlatched. SOURCE: �WIKIPEDIA
