The old girl was vibrating pretty badly - no not the wife, she hasn't vibrated in years! I'm talking about the truck ('87 B2200). I went with the Anchor brand. Got 'em from Amazon for $25 delivered (2). I was a little concerned about the height difference (new .35" thicker) from my old ones though. Due to the angle they're at, I think it raised the engine about 1/4" - had to raise the fan shroud a touch (its slotted so no problem). Put 'em in anyway and they did the job. Definitely smoother - the truck, not the wife. I'll add a pic of the old and new mounts to show you what I mean.

My '88 B2200 also got new Anchor motor mounts this year, ordered mine from O'Reilly. Mine fit OK, but think installation would've been easier if the threaded studs were a little shorter.

My original mounts were both in two pieces. I later bought a transmission mount (5-speed), also Anchor, but when I checked my original transmission mount was OK, so I left that on there.
