poly bushing are garbage. you will feel every crack in the road every piece of gravel on the road and will have cab/body cracks if you keep the truck long enough.
LMC rubber bushings are the cheapest after market bushings I could find. but by the time you get all the pieces they ended up being more than getting them from ford.
I would suggest contacting parts guy ed (site sponsor ) if you don't have a commercial account at your ford dealer

also if the truck has two tanks you'll have to drop the front or get creative enough to reach around the tank strap. also a homemade puller and a port-o-power make short work of the mounts.

Once you find the cheapest please report back. I am looking to do the same. I have checked LMC but not my dealer yet.

the truck I installed them in was so rough that I let the tires down to 30 psi to deliver it (60 miles) my parents were working in the area and I knew they had an air compressor with them so I could air them back up before I delivered it.
my son's '77 chevy has them also it is just as bad.
