1997 Ford E-350 Body Mount Bushing Options

I pulled the body off of my 97 E-350 Quigley and in doing so snapped off at least half of the body mount bushing bolts. I was unable to salvage them and decided to replace all of them (before I found out how much they cost.....). I have searched far and wide for different options but can't find anything. I considered doing a 2"body lift but can't even find anyone but Ford and Dorman that makes anything for the E series vans. I would like to put silicon bushings on and was wondering if the E series bushings are close to the same as the F series.

Body Mount(s)

I can get the Dorman mounts on Amazon for $37.95 for 2,3,4,6 but was looking for a silicon option. The pic on the Napa site was of a Ford OEM bushing..... Maybe that would be a better option than the Dorman.

I'd be curious as to what you find.
And what you find for your body lift.

I am going to go to Napa and buy a E series mount and a F series mount and see what the differences are....

I'm always interested what others use or substitute for this sort of project although I don't see me doing this anytime soon.

I know there's a lot of E-Series owners who'd benefit from something, anything to use.

Very, very late in this reply but the NAPA parts are actually Dorman stuff.

Regardless where they come from the fact they're so readily available is great news I'm sure. NAPA link: https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/NDP6...ut=noe+6504213 bottom of page.

Is Napa / Dorman under that umbrella of "Factory" for you?
