For $50 it is totally worth it! When you say everything, does that include the wheels? I only ask because it seems that transporting it may be easier that way.

Would you want me to travel to the location to grab everything? Pm me the location so I can map it.

I may want to grab the rear suspension bits from you too once I research whether the parts are the same as a 2wd blazer. I am thinking they will be longer though.
Yes, $50 and I will include the wheels too. I'm not sure both freely rotate...one of the drums was locked up a few years ago, but I can't remember if it was a front or rear wheel...I think it was front wheel.

Here's a good link on disc brake conversion. See the top of post #4.

And yes, the front suspension would be for local pickup near Spalding, NE.
