2006 STX 4.2 engine mounts?

Hoping somebody on here can straighten me out... What's the deal with the engine mounts for the 4.2 liter. They don't seem to be available anywhere.
Trying to narrow down a high speed shake on my STX, and I'm thinking it's time to check the mounts out. I went looking for a set of them, for when I crawl under the truck.
And, nobody seems to have them. I admit, I haven't actually pulled everything apart to get a good look at what's there. But, on other trucks I didn't mess around with inspecting old mounts.
I just changed them. Is there something different about the way the 4.2 is mounted in the truck?
Another reason I think I've got a problem with the mounts, is that I found the factory hoist bracket (on the passenger side) snapped off and laying on top of the exhaust manifold/ AC box.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hopefully not 'preaching to the choir' but almost all speed-related vibrations are wheel/tire related. You're more likely to hear clunking noises from a motor mount when hitting the gas.
