I assume you are talking about the original mounts vs the new repro ones? Anybody who's got a set in hand, can you measure the thickness, please? Folks say they are "thinner" than original. Called Truck Shop and they didn't have that info handy... none in stock ~2 weeks ago.

According to Steve, I got the last set until new shipment arrives. Just checked one of mine........ Without raised section: .594" to .610" Raised portion: .682" to .704" The rubber does seem to be higher durometer (denser), and should not compress as much. So, we're talking about less than .10" difference --- should not be a problem..

these trucks though were well compensated with the use of shims to tweek theses sort of adj. It does look like they are selling a complete suburban mounting kit and the others are also perhaps compensated for in height ron |

Here's what I think they are supposed to be (Chevy parts book, ron, lewis) Truck shop measurements in blue: length - 3.0" Truck Shop - 3.25" width - 1.76" Truck Shop - 1.9" height (thickness) - 0.92" w/ raised portion, 0.72" w/o raised portion Truck Shop height - 0.69" w/ raised portion, 0.59" w/o raised portion rubber side hole diameter - ~0.75" Truck Shop - 0.76" steel side hole diameter - ~0.44" Truck Shop - 0.62" Have not installed yet, anybody have a problem with them fitting between the rails, since these are a little wider? And the diameter of the steel side hole is much larger, looks like it'lll make for a sloppier fit for the bolt?

I used the rectangular ones to replace my rusted ones in the rear positions. They do fit between the rails, was concerned with extra width. Comments on the install of the rectangular ones:
