s10 or blazer rear end in camaro??

[HossV6]

i was thinking about putting a rear end from an s10 or blazer on my camaro. I have a zr2 s10 and it came with 10 bolt. 3.73s and LSD from the factory, and it also has drum brakes. would the axle bolt up right? the main reason for me doing this is, i dont want to go through the hassel of upgrading my rear brakes to disks, I would like to but i dont feel comfortable with changing whole rear brake system. so i was thinking if i found a rear end like the one in my truck would it bolt onto the camaro and just hook up the drums the that axle and be good to go? or would there be more involved

I believe blazers have leaf springs and the axle shafts are a few inches shorter. definately easier for you to pick up a 93-97 v8 rear.

differential would work but I dont think the whole rear would

swap out the internals from the S10 rear and put them in yours

if i swap in the internals could i take them out in a chunk? so i wouldnt have to set the mesh? setting the mesh is a concern for me cuz i dont want to burn everything up
