Just thought I'd share that RicksRangerz on ebay is now making and stocking the plates to bolt the 302 to 4.0l motor mounts on 98+ 2WD coil spring trucks.
I know in the past there have members on various forums that offered batches of them but then there were major dry spells and users only had the cad drawings to go source having their own made from them.
So it seems worthy to share here that you can just buy them for $59 shipped right now, no hassles..

I did not use his mounts, so I can't say anything about the fit, but they look to be made from the cad drawing that has been floating around for years. I used the 5.0l mounts and just drilled the frame where they needed to go, and then tacked on a small spacer to tilt them flat. But I found these because I bought the Raised Upper Arm mounts from his ebay store, which is another much needed part to be available to the masses.
