This Motion Raceworks 1982-93 S10/Sonoma/Blazer Parachute Mount is a great NHRA & IHRA track legal option to stop your vehicle safely, but look good while doing it. Made in the USA, we fully TIG weld a combo of DOM Chromoly Tubing and CNC Laser Formed Brackets for a strong but lightweight design. From there the mount is inspected and prepped for its standard gloss black powder coat finish to become the highest quality piece on the market!
The Frame Cross Bar is designed to bolt on to your factory frame mounts replacing the factory crash bar/bumper support. With a cross bolt receiver design this allows for easy installation and with removal of one bolt, the Parachute Receiver Mount comes out. Then the hole can be quickly hidden with a license plate for street driving, trailering, or storage when not at the track.
Parts Included:
- Frame Cross Bar Mount
- Parachute Receiver Mount
- All Necessary Grade 8 Hardware (some kits reuse factory hardware)

We do not suggest use of a spring/pilot (this style) parachute mount on any blazer platforms. There is an area of dead air in the rear of these vehicles that will not allow the parachute to function properly.
Optional Parts:
- Billet Handle & Cable Release Kit
- Stroud 420 Comp Eliminator Pilot Spring Parachute
- Stroud 430 Pro Stock Pilot Spring Parachute
- Parachute Cable Holder
Install Notes:
Some frames have been known to "spread" or separate side to side. Use the supplied bolts to pull the frame back together as it is the furthest most point on the bed and is unsupported. This parachute mount will now act as a strengthening piece as well. This parachute mount was built on a virgin S10 platform and verified on multiple others, we then jig build the mount for accuracy and repeatability.
Slight trimming of sheet metal hanging down from bed will need to be done to allow the "receiver" portion of the parachute mount to pass through.
