1997 Chevrolet Blazer ZR2 - show me all your compatible kits?

[warp9pnt9]

It's a bit difficult to find the parts I need, sorting through a master kit web page, pages of kit numbers included in kits, and pages of PDF files for each kit, and then the PDF files.  MY GOD!  And no ordering direct.  Even if you make a kit, it's often hard to find someone who sells it.  No store here.  Great products but the web presence is very confusing.

I'm looking for a list of all kits available for my vehicle.  Some companies sell what they call a "master kit" and it may be the same as what you call a "master" kit, or it may be that plus some other vehicle specific applications.  I do know my vehicle and plug in the make/model/year/engine/drive/tranny or whatever else is asked on a retail site.  Some sites have assembled their own "master kits".  But usually these kits don't include everything.

My vehicle is in it's 11th (or 12th if you consider 1997s are released in 1996) year and still running on 100% OEM rubber for EVERY bushing and mount, and I am SCARED FOR MY LIFE!  If that's not motivation enough for a person to buy, NOTHING is!  You can't BUY advertising to instill that sense of urgently needing and wanting a competent replacement!

I've looked at other bushing and mount suppliers and none even come CLOSE to your diverse selection!  Much less quality...

Although it may be confusing to do so at first, and a bit of a maintenance cost, it would be infinitely handy to provide at the very least an automated product selector that would allow a person to type in a specific model/year and quickly get a list of all individual kits and master kits in a concise colored table.  It's just a matter of capturing the business logic (kit numbers) and technical logic (vehicle applications), stuffing it into a database, and selectively ripping it out and displaying with JavaScript on the fly.  A database on server might work, but might just as well be a text file and JavaScript solution, nothing overkill.

Would be infinitely handy!

Thanks for your entry Warp,

I will not disagree one bit the general census has revealed that our sight is below par in reference to searching and locating specific applications, I do apologize.  We are working closely with our graphic design department to make changes toward a better tomorrow. 

Scared for your life??!!  We should probably use that in our advertising campaigns

Were you able to finally find what you need?  Let me know if I can help you in any way, thanks again!!

I think I've worked out most of it.

The one bushing I can't seem to find on there is the spare wheel rack bushing.  Every time the vehicle hits any slight bump, it rattles like a box of bricks.  ;-)  On my model vehicle, they put the spare tire on a swing-out rack latched to the tailgate.  Due to the compact S10 frame, and the 4WD, and ZR2 factory lift, and gas tank, there was no undercarriage space to stick a wheel.  Been looking around and nobody has a replacement bushing for it!  Wonder if an existing product might fit with some hobby knife or rotary tool carving...

That's interesting that no one manufacturers it.  If you send me the dimensions or even the bushing I might be able to find something close, as long as you would be willing to write up a Do-it-yourself article for are DIY section on the forum.
