c-clip gone bad
Granted not a 3rd gen, but a GM rear-not sure if it's the 7.5", but it's in a blazer so I would "assume" it to be so. This is what CAN happen to these things. I had the same thing happen in a daily driven full size blazer I had when the C clip let go, had to lock it in to pull myself off the road!!

Another reason why I got rid of the 10 bolt 
One of the c-clips was looking bad last time I had it apart too.
