Canadian Truck part dealer/supplier
Thanks for the help so far guys, but I'm looking for a set I can buy off of ebay.
Those parts dealers always hit you with ridiculous $$$ in shipping cause I live in Canada, so those "free shipping" days don't ever apply to me.
I guess I'm taking a bit of a risk, but I'm trying to order my mounting bushings off of Ebay.
I sent out an email to one of the cheaper (I'm not paying no $100 for this bushing set... or LMC's $250...) dealers on Ebay, this is what I was sent back with:
This kit includes the following:
2 - 68015 - Body Mount
2 - 60337 - Body Mount
2 - 60339 - Body Mount
2 - 68020 - Body Mount
2 - 68021 - Body Mount
2 - 68031 - Body Mount
This kit does cover the radiator support bushings. You can find this kit here:
Prothane 6110 - Body Mount Bushings Set - 2WD. 6110
Does this look correct to everyone?

There's a guy in BC called Larry Jangula who sells all the truck stuff. Ford Trucks and cars are his thing. He's quoted me some prices that are not bad. He deals with suppliers and keeps a small inventory in his warehouse. And he's in Canada.

You might not get bushings from him, but he deals in pretty much all aftermarket stuff for ford trucks.

Anywho, I'm not satisfied with Amazon. They were about to ship out the wrong parts to me, but caught themselves the day they were shipping everything out only to find that they UNDER-STOCKED those specific bushings... so some idiot just filled my box with something completely wrong and said "good enough".
Luckily it was caught before it was shipped out, but now I'm on a waiting list from the manufacturer, which will take another 2 weeks for them to get it in and then another week or so to ship it to me.
I'm not one to complain when small mistakes are made, but when you've got two whole weeks before its shipped to get it right, you'd think you'd do just that and NOT wait until the last minute to check "is this correct?"
I'm not impressed because they never offered me anything at all for their massive mistake, but i'm not super pissed off cause other things have come up in my life that I can afford to wait for them another 2-3 weeks.
I paid roughly $40 with tax for the bushings and $30 for shipping (supposed to be three weeks max when it hits my doorstep for $30).
The other shipping option was something like $80 to make it hit my doorstep a week earlier... nothanks...
Overall I'm not satisfied with their "opsy daisy", and I haven't heard back when my parts will even be shipped so I can't tell you if they're even decent for my vehicle or not.
Next time I think I'll just pay the extra $50-$100 to get it from a real parts store/online store that knows what they're doing and will get it to me within two weeks or less... cause this was the most painful online experience I've had yet....
