You should be able to use the original rubber mounts with the new shocks. I would give them a try before I set out on a mission to find new ones.

Lol, I hear ya. I am just trying to make sure when I go to do this I have everything. A friend that owns a shop lets me use his lift on a Sunday if I need it so just want to get my ducks in a row so it is a one time installation.

+ one. You should be able to use the parts from your car. Should be a plate and bushing on the bottom and a plate and bushing with a nut in the trunk (for each side). Make sure you have a method of holding the shock shaft top before you start as you need to hold the shaft so you can break the nut free otherwise the shaft may just spin.
