I put the LMC rubber ones in, I believe they are the only aftermarket rubber ones being made. It took about 8 months before they started to look worse then the 40 year old ones I replaced them with.

who sell the hardware that you need to go with the bushings?

Re: What body bushings ?
 

LMC sells all the bolts Or if you do a search there is a thread on here that lists all of the bolt sizes.

When I did mine I simply when to the hardwere store and bought carrage bolts with nylon lock nuts and were ever possiable I uped the size of the bolt. Not the fastest way as I had to make a few trips but like I said after that I haven't needed to even touch them in all the years of use :metal:

A long time ago there was a guy named Steve Chin who knew a ton about blazers. Here is the list he compiled. It has been repeated here before so I'm pretty sure he would be o.k. with it.

Here are the bolts, sizes and lengths starting from the front to the rear, (stock lengths).

Radiator support: 7/16"-14 x 3 3/8" long, (2) carriage bolt

Body mount #1: 9/16"-12 x 6" long, (2) hex head

Body mount #2: 3/8" -16 x 10" long, (2) carriage bolt

Body mount #3: 3/8" -16 x 5 1/2" long, (2) carriage bolt

Body mount #4: 3/8" -16 x 4 1/2" long, (2) carriage bolt

Body mount #5: 3/8" -16 x 5 1/2" long, (2) carriage bolt

When the bolts were installed Steve used 3M Strip caulk under the heads to kep water out of the cabin.
