Are Front and Rear lock actuators the same? I am looking to get door lock actuators out of a blazer for my 03 Xtreme S-10 but the only actuators he has are the rears.Will they work? Unless somebody else on here can sell me a set.

No the rears are molded different from the fronts.. Also the front driver's side is wired differently from the other 3 doors to do a needed electrical loop..(I know this because I've had to change my actuator/locks... Remember what I said before, the actuator is part of the striker lock, it's not seperate like in the 1st gens, it's integrated) Like I said, lots of wrecking yards withing a 25 mile radius of you, check www.car-parts.com
