The rear mounts with the cradle can be used. The front requires the nosecone to be swapped.

Why not just use heavy duty mounts?

As I answered in another post, with the transmission carrier, you can use earlier mounts. Many of us are...

As Glenn stated, heavy duty rubber mounts are a much better way to go. Urethane and solid are going to be hell to live with everyday (if this is a daily). Unless this is a track car, there is really no point.

What are you running for an engine that makes you feel you need solid mounts?

Bergman? Really?

Heavy Duty rubber are all you need, Urethane are overkill...

But if you are going to do it, you need the front mount adapter, either

-or-

depending on if you have a two or three bolt nose cone, you will have to check.

You also need the carrier

Than its just a matter of bolting it in...
