Ground it anywhere on the chassis, make sure its bare metal. NO paint. Or, ground it straight to your negative terminal on your battery.

easiest place i found on blazers to ground is the backseat bolts

there is also a bolt, if you are standing by the rear bumper with your rear door open, the panels on the right near the right tail light pop up, and behind the carpet theres a bolt there, just cut a knick in the carpet and run the wire through there and your good. also the backseat bolts are just as good, as mentioned

do as suggested about the bolt at the rear door. but running a wire to the battery leaves room for easy upgrades if you ever need more grounds. that one wire from the battery can go to a single amp, or to a buss bar, which can then split and go to 3-5 more amps

Drill a hole in the floor. Put a bolt in that hole and run you ground to it using a ring terminal. Underneath the truck on the other end of that bolt run another cable to a bolt on the frame of the truck. If there is not one conveniently located, drill a hole in the frame put a grounding bolt in it. Upgrade the frame ground to the battery under the hood.

If you have a cargo tie down triangle type bolt, I would use that. And some kind of sealant to keep water/moister out since the threaded hole goes through the floor.
