They're captured on Blazers since you can't get behind the pillar.

That's about what I thought lol

Do the strikers just screw in, I assume? My doors are rattling and I noticed there is no bushing or sleeve. I have heard something about using a piece of PEX? Anybody know more about this than me?

I used a piece of blue pex tubing on my truck. Put it on both several years ago and no rattle and the doors close perfectly. I have access to a bunch of the tubing at the railroad where I work so keep 3 2 foot pieces on hand in case I need it.

I've got a 76 van that is showing signs of cracking around the pin area. also have a 96 g30(last year of that van body) that you can clearly see spot welds were it has a large backing plate welded in behind the pin area. I would definitely put a larger piece in behind those if you're very far into fixing one up.
