Body mount bushings
What is the best type of bushings to get for replacements. Standard, Polygraphite, or Urethane. These will go on my 2wd Blazer. And who sells the most reasonably priced kit.

I like the original ones. They are softer and quiter. The Urethane ones ride tough and squeek like hell.

I would not use any stiff bushings as mounts for the cab/radiator support/ or bed. The mounts are there to isolate vibration and noise transmission. I do not think that they have any affect on handling, unless they are collapsed. Considering how long they last and how easy they are to change I think it is a non issue. Now suspension bushing, that is a whole different ball game.
