Picked up a used set of Energy Suspensions for a mid 80's Blazer. Downloaded the install instructions, for set # 3.4118 (this kit covers '81-'97), and found some of the individual part #s are different:( Starting from the front the first 3 sets use a #4076 between the body and the frame. I have #4067. All the other parts I have are correct.

Looking at Energy Suspensions web site the 4067 are second gen truck mounts for K10, K20, K30. Maybe others but on Energy Suspension's web site you can't look up individual part numbers, only by kit number or by vehicle:rolleyes: I emailed Energy Suspension and they only sell complete kits, no replacement parts:mad:.

What I am hoping for is somebody, who has the correct kit, can take a couple of rough measurements for me so I can compare the two parts. Frankly if there is less than 3/16" difference I'll use these.

So, to describe this toad stool looking thing it's 3" across and 1-3/4" high, of that height 1" is the head and the 3/4" has a metal sleeve on it. The top is slightly beveled to 2-5/8" across. The oblong hole in the center is 1-1/4" X 3/4". I used a tape measure so they aren't exact but should be close.

Finally, since the center hole is oblong then I guess they should be oriented in a specific direction. I'd guess that would be so the body can roll side to side, is that correct?

Pics as requested. The pic #4 is actually 2 parts together since that is how they appear in the catalog pic. The last pic is out of the catalog of the complete kit as I couldn't find them otherwise. All the other parts I have do match the catalog pic.

i just purchased a energy suspension body mount kit , for an 89 blazer . they ordered me 3.4118G Kit
 
Wait a minute. You have the same part numbers as I have. Maybe the 4076 number given in the downloaded instructions is a misprint and the correct part number is 4067, which is what we both have.:doah::doah:

Anyway your measurements are about the same as mine so I'm using 'em:D

Thanks for the help!
 
I think your right its a misprint. The downloaded instructions are dated 07 , the one i scanned are dated 09. they must have corrected it
your welcome for the help
 
I'm always put off by the statement "Torque to factory specs"...seems to me that if they are going to go to the trouble of designing and selling products then they could easily furnish the specs as a part of the installation instructions.

Does anyone know what the "Factory Torque Specs" are for body mount fasteners?
