Thanks, no problem. I have to do some cleaning under there and some paint before I can install the transfer case and transmission.

The engine and transfer case (tranny too) lower mounts are all new rubber ones. I would use rubber torque mounts but have had no luck finding them so since this truck isn't going to be high horsepower or ridden hard on trails maybe it will be OK. It definitely is going to get driven a lot and ride trails though.

That was actually my bad Jim and Hemi43 as I mis-informed in my first post "neoprene"! Sorry about that guys! Oldtimers disease again on my part.
Thank-you all for the help and advice.
