Default crossmember mount bushing in polyurathane.??!!????

Well guys in for penny in for a pound I guess! Anybody have a part number for the torsion bar mount in polyurethane





or a end link kit they have used.

Things ordered already . RO 2.5 lift kit ordered, gas tank ,fuel pump, evap thingy, polyerathane body mounts custom made 1/2 body spacers, polyurethane leaf spring kit ( took one for s10 and one for full-size do to spring code and 1/2 ton bolts for front mount.) Tcase rebuild kit, rebuilt engine, ZR2 rear axle, front diff, full Zr2 donor, rebuilt engine, JBA headers, junkyard interior, and body repair crap. New steering gear box and all new suspension everything. Did I miss anything guys? Anybody want to donate a rust free truck. Lol

Plans are as follows. Custom size dual exhaust as large as I can fit coming off engine but not larger then whatever the full-size truck short headers collector would be on same year of 4.3. Repair rusted out sections by cutting cancer out. Undercoat body and frame install as much of ZR2 suspension as possible. Hopefully when I’m done since truck was free it’ll be worth at least half of what I’ve financially invested. But it’s good practice for my race car which is the point of the body work.

Update .... ZR2 front clip off, fenders will do including passenger inside fender. Driver side gonna order a new one I think....
Also it’s Radiator core support was in pretty good shape. Nothing a wire wheel and sandblaster at grounding points won’t fix.
Got the Driver-side lower control arm off... FYI clean hands and hammer off before beating the sh*t out of control arm to get off the dam torsion bar. Slipped one to many times and had to use die finder to cut big thing torsion bar goes in. Tomorrow night will take 6” grinder and cut the torsion bar mounting bracket and slice the key on 2 sides to avoid hitting it with a torch.
Passenger side took 6 hits with hammer and the torsion bar come flying out of the key. Took sawzaw put 2 notch in lower control arm close together in a v pattern. Drove a cold chisel in notch smacked the control arm a few times and out came the torsion bar.
In case I didn’t note I got the blazer keys and torsion bars out last night.
