Upull It Pittsburgh 2wd Blazer brakes

[pagrunt]

Found a complete set of Blazer brakes at the Upull It. Didn't have time/right tools to pull them myself but there for the taking.

You gonna make me run down there for parts I don't need right at the moment.

I have 3 sets that my son has pulled in NC if anyone is interested . Two sets have functioning calipers and all of the bearings are at ‘useable’.

The shipping on a complete spindle, caliper, router will be ridiculous though.


Now I understand why JAMCAR223 can find these in warm Texas. There are plenty to be found in the Wilmington,NC Area.

They are like chicken lips in the snow belt..

There's a solid victim right there . When they are sitting there like that, all I need is 7 tools and 10 minutes per side.

The Oldsmobile Bravada was available in 2wd form (from 1995-2001 according to Wikipedia), same as that vintage Blazer. Don't overlook those in the junkyards, I got a set from one here locally.

Too bad they're not like chicken fingers, those are everywhere.

what about just shipping the spindle and dust shield?those are what's hard to come by,everything else can be concidered a consumable-readily available and might not be worth shipping due to weight and service life anyways.I'm in a similar part the map as you and i've never seen them in the yards here.

Also, hold onto all the hardware. bolts, and line brackets. I agree with Chris, they're easier to ship and cheaper minus the calipers, and hubs. It would be nice to have the calipers as cores, but with the added weight, it's probably not worth it.

If it were me, I'd be buying new calipers, rotors and pads anyway.

 

[JAMCAR223]

It's just not worth buying, reselling, and shipping the calipers, rotors, and hubs. I tried it once, and it wasn't a good deal for me ( the seller ), or the buyer. Plus, who wants junkyard calipers, rotors, and hubs anyway? Most of us who do this conversion are "upgrading", not wanting to install rusty junkyard parts with no idea of age or mileage.
