2WD Blazer body mounts

[DrppdBlazr]

Looking to replace my Radiator support mounts as well as position #1 and #2 on my 1979 2wd blazer. After some internet searching best ive come up with was through LMC. Total ends up being about $180 shipped for the radiator mount kit and the first two positions. Everywhere else Ive looked at has been for 4wd models...Any idea where I can find some that will work for me...I dont need the last two positions cause i built my frame and just wont need the two rearmost positions right now. Any info will be appreciated.

If you only need the fronts, wouldn't you be able to just buy 79 2wd C-10 mounts. Rock auto has a poly mount kit for like $83

Not sure if there the same. That's kinda why I asked cause I'm not sure if they use the same type or not? I'm sure the radiator mount is the same but not sure about the cab positions

This has come up a couple of times, seems like someone used the 4x4 mounts without issue. I'll search and see if I can find that thread.

Sweet, thanks Bruiser... I tried to do a search myself but I didnt come up with much

Hertzdaddy mentions using the 4x4 bushings w/success on his 73 in this thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...ht=body+mounts.

My blazer was a 4wd and when I changed my core support I used two decent bushings off a 2wd c10 at the pull apart. Everything seems to line up fine.

Nice, the more I look around and compare them they look pretty similar i think imma go ahead and go with the poly ones for 4x4's and see how they work.

[DrppdBlazr]

Im gonna go ahead and kit the body mount kit from Classicparts.com, Comes with all the bushings ill need plus more so Ill let you guys know how they work out.

I think I paid less than $150 for a full set of body mounts for my blazer on ebay and they are the Energy Suspension poly mounts.. Might want to look there..

[DrppdBlazr]

Ya I looked on eBay. Found a set for like $80 but decided to go with the classic parts ones cause with the December discount code they ended up being like $70 for full set and was able to get other goddies I needed anyways while I was ordering so it worked out.

[DrppdBlazr]

So the info is out there if needed... the 78-80 bushing are the same for 2wd and 4wd blazers.

Coolio. If they are the same for 78-80, it's reasonable to expect them to be the same between 2wd and 4x4 73-87. Thanks for the follow up.

A 4wd set worked without any problems on my 82 2wd

Good to hear, this question appears to be solved.
