This maybe true on most trucks. The one I have the 6 cyl mounts will not work. These are not the same as the 8 cyl and unless you want yo do some fabrication to make these work it is easier to find the entire set up in a junk yard.

Take measurmenets of the frame as these are also different from model to model. Again this is from my experience and headaches. If you want more informtion on what I went through PM me.
