Need part number for 2000 blazer roller rockers
 
Hi,

2000 chevy blazer, S10, V6, 4.3, 4 door, 2wd.

seems one of my rockers is out and I need to get some new ones. Problem is that all the parts stores (Advanced, O'Reilly's, etc) show that I'm supposed to get a rocker arm that is a cup with a rounded bushing and a bolt through it all. What came out of my blazer are bronze colored rocker arms with ball bearing pivots that are not compatible with what everyone is trying to sell.

What I'm being told I need:
More Information for SEALED POWER R1090A

What original looks like:
More Information for SEALED POWER R1117

Called a few dealer parts department, they weren't too helpful. Kept telling me the cup style rocker is what I needed.
If anyone can confirm the part number, or at least, where to get the correct part, please help!

Thanks!

According to my Haynes book "2000 and later models do have roller rockers"! So they are wrong in telling you that you have pivot ball type rockers. I searched for my vehicle 2002 4.3, and most auto part sites only came up with pivot style rockers. O`Reilly`s is the only one that got it right.

P.S. torque specs for your Bolts from Haynes book- Rocker arm nuts (bolts on 2000 and later) ........ 20lbs

Thanks, you saved the day! I have no clue why everyone, including Chevy, has it wrong. I can't convince them that it's wrong even, lol.
