hi everyone i have a 96 bravada and recently alot is starting to go wrong but i love it and dont want to get rid of her. so i have to broken motor mounts and was wondering if i absolutly have to get them fixed. if i dont get them fixed will i still be able to take her through the mud and offroad. i also have a bad u joint and was wondering how hard it is to do the u joint is on the front driveshaft. o i almost forgot when i put on the max ac or the regular ac i get a faint grinding noise constantly and seems to get louder with the engine. all in all i do like the vehicle though and i dont know what people say about bravadas not being meant for offroad. it goes just as good as my 96 jeep did. o well thanks everyone.

o yea i forgot i was also going to ask if you can put a chrome blazer bumper on it or would there be a ridicuolsly large gap there. not only that but i was wondering if just about anything for a 96 blazer would fit the 96 bravada

no on the bumper...

the ac grinding noise is prolly the compressor being shot.

i personally woundn't even consider driving an truck with shitty motor mounts.

and u joints are easy. just take you time.

broken motor mounts can cause driveshaft issues...get them fixed as soon as you can

front driveshaft issues to be exact

also broken mounts can cause the motor to move so much that tha fan will hit the fan shroud...causing broken blades
