funny enough, it only makes a difference if you use bushings on both the cab and the front clip. I see guys solid mount their front clip and use bushings on the cab! the bushings are supposed to isolate RHV (ride harshness and vibration) from the cab, solid mounting your front clip is opposite of this.

for that matter, most of the bolt on kits I see use a flap of rubber (like the stock AD) which does absolutely nothing to isolate the cab.

does it really matter in a squeaky 70 year old cab? maybe not!
