Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
We hope to have them ready before Christmas. That will depend on how long it takes to hammer out the details. Will keep everyone informed in this thread. WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
This may be a stupid question but how do your body mounts/ NOS ones differ from the previously produced inferior repro parts? Is it a different material or did you follow the NOS examples more closely?

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
Any chance of buying just the lower half? I have 2 sets (16) NOS uppers and have had no luck finding the lower half.

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
What makes ours different than the other piece of crap set that is out there is, we use a different manufacturer with a much better blend of material. The other set (imported by LMC) is hads a natural rubber blend. The natural rubber is mixed with earthen material and black carbon. (essentially talcom powder mixed with rubber and carbon) Ours is a synthetic blend with carbon, added for color and oil and UV protectors to assure they do not degrade in the sun or if the oily spray your truck kicks up while driving down the road in the rain. For now we will be selling as sets (subject to change). Depends on the deal we strike with the manufacturer. WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
Incidentally our blend of material is what sets our gas filler grommets apart from others. This is why we can offer a lifetime warranty. Nobody else can or will do that for you. WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
How much interest is there for people wanting to only buy the cushions? I am working up a spread sheet on costs as I type this. OR, would you rather just have the complete kit with hardware?
We are getting closer!! WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
I'd be in for cushions definitely, mine are OE and have about half that are bad. I would definitely do the hardware kit too, you know how it goes trying to remove original body bolts. What kind of finish would they be available in?
Bright, cadmium? Thanks for doing this for us all Wes. |

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
The nuts, bolts and washers will all be zinc coated. The sleeves may just be raw steel. It is going to depend on if I can find them pre-maid with a coating or not. There are coated ones on the market now, but their cost are more than triple what I found in plain steel. WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
The buy will go in on Monday for all of the cushions. I struck that deal. Sill working on the sleeves. I have a 100 or so raw steel now, enough to get started, will need to get more fast!! WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
Wes I think it would be great to either offer or include the sleeves as they are so often trashed. The carriage bolts would be nice to offer separate as those aren't tough to locally source if you know the lengths.
I would also suggest that you offer the offset washers if possible. Thanks!!

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
Hardware is really going to be the least expensive parts. It is more a matter of convenience for the customer not to have to source those on their own. The expense of the kit wouldn't be reduced that much because of it. As for the off-set washers, the blazers did not have them from the factory. LMC offers them in their kits but I can only speculate as to why. I will offer my kits as they were from the factory. WES

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
The offset washers are very helpful for knuckleheads like me who round out the square holes in the floor pan during removal of the decades old rusty hardware (better to grind off the heads and punch through the bolt shaft). Also useful for keeping the head secure up top when you are tightening the bolts solo from below.

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
I thought the floor bolts were tacked. The rear bed bolts had a washer that contoured the bed shape.

Re: Classic Heartbeat 69-72 Blazer Body Mount Kit.....
Only the front-most two hex head (non-carriage) bolts in the cab are tack welded. IIRC only the bolts at the rear xmember have the washers depicted.
