Cab Mount Bushings

I am in the middle of replacing the cab mounts (using the DC mounts, nice stuff) and bushings on my 1970 250. I ordered the Energy Suspension poly bushings but they shipped the 4wd instead of the 2wd. Anyone know what the difference is? I used the search and can across one thread that said they are the same but no additional confirmation. I'm getting ready to return them but am curious.

P.S. someday I will update my build thread

1967/72 - Genuine Ford parts...as original:

The front upper/lower bushings are the same: 1967/72 F100/250 2WD/4WD & F350.

The rear upper/lower bushings are not the same. F100/250 2WD different than F100/250 4WD & F350.

You can still fine the OEM rubber mounts but it may take a little time as these rubber cushion get posted
at many places from guys selling off there NOS they been sitting on for yrs...

ND or Jeff can post the cab OEM #'s then keep up a search for the parts you need ..
That's what, I did when , I replaced my cab mount cushions.

Sorry to jump in but I have the cab off my 69 so should I be carful in removing the existing cab mounting rubber bushings or can I get new ones made from better rubber than the 69 years were made of. Mine is also a two wheel drive with a 390 motor.

Numbers Dummy do you know of any thing that would hinder a 1" body lift for my truck cab and bed. I did this on a old jeep I had years ago and it was so easy to wash under the cab and clean the frame off after a hunting trip in the muddy east Texas woods. I want to use those synergy type bushing and then I know will come the task of where to find that bolt system ford used if I have to go back with that system.
