Is the tailgate for a 1998 GMC Jimmy interchangeable with any year Chevy Blazer?

While the GMC Jimmy and Chevy Blazer share many parts, tailgate interchangeability between a 1998 GMC Jimmy and a Chevy Blazer depends heavily on the *specific year* of the Blazer. The body styles changed over the years, and while some parts might be similar, a direct swap isn't guaranteed.

You'll need to check the year of the Blazer and possibly even the trim level. Tailgate dimensions, latch mechanisms, and even the wiring harness could differ slightly between model years and trims. Simply having a Blazer from the same generation (1995-2002) isn't enough to guarantee a fit.

To be certain, you'd need to compare part numbers for the tailgates of the specific 1998 GMC Jimmy and the Chevy Blazer in question. You can find these part numbers through online auto parts stores (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) by entering the vehicle's VIN.
