No worries man, Go to your profile and fill that in so you don't have to re-type it all the time, and we know what your working on... No worries, being new is not a crime here like other forums.
As far as the mounts. If you're asking for the bushings, I just bought these from Morris. If i remember right the spring ones, will take some modification, but from what i can tell they always do... and its not a big deal-breaker...
Part # 218104R
(Red)
$59.99
Comes in Black too
If you're talking the actual mounts... Those are findable, but not positive where... I haven't looked as I fab'ed my own...
This is the whole master kit, with spring mount bushings (8 with sleeves), the body mount bushings, 13 or 15 i believe, and tie-rod end-cap bushings... I think it does not include the new torque limiter bushings though, but they are available if you want them...
There are more on the link i posted above too, double check all, so I am not responsible for a mistake

If you have a fiber glass body do NOT use polly bushings, in fact you might need special rubber mounts. 4wd sells kits for glass bodies, it comes in a long tube and you cut it to fit.

:ty: old dog! I feel terrible about giving bad advice!!
I am truly sorry bob... I hope you did not order anything yet...
What happens when you use polly with fiberglass body? Too stiff and will rub holes i assume??
Sorry again bob!

Bob, Yes the poly is to hard, the glass body need some cushion, or so the body makers claim anyway.

I'm not going to say they are wrong but I do have an 18 year old fiberglass body that I have used poly bushing on since new and it is still holding up. That is just my experience anyway. Do remember though, rubber body mounts will give a slightly better ride quality.
