The trangulated four link in these cars is always in bind,the lower control arm style bar doesn't help things by design.the style we're talking is far more effective.

2dr blazer points backwards and sits on the top of the axle, putting it on a G body moves it under the diff and points forward. A 4dr has the fuel tank in the spot behind the axle and the swaybar sits in a spot that doesn't work on a G body.

A 3rd gen is good and fits BUT you have to heat and bend the ends inward since they flare out a few inches at the ends.

Stock blazer 2dr bar is 1" diameter.
Thank you for clarifying that. So I'll be on the hunt for a 2-dr Blazer. At least now I know what to positively look for.

looking to improve the rear suspension on my 87 cutlass i found this on summit if my search was correct its for 2000 blazer 2w driver. for $193.99 i know some member are going to a salvage yard to find this setup for their gbody . so is this basically the same setup. thinking of purchasing this for my build i wouldn't mind spending 200.00 for all new parts. everything in my area is covered with rust

why not just look at ones actually for your car?
Because a frame mount bar is more effective than the factory style between the lower control arms, that's why.
The Blazer bar is cheap compared to a weld in aftermarket anti-roll bar.
