Thanks for your help,

Are you sure that the back mount is bad. Usually the Two front mounts go out. The bottom one and the top one(usually called the dogbone mount) located on the passenger side. On the strut issue are you sure they are bad? Are your tires chopped? My 95 has 169K on it and the struts are still good. Goodyear tried to sell me a set and after I questioned them about how good the tires were wearing they backed off the issue very fast, of course this was the same place that told me I needed to change the timing belt on my 92 P.U. after 218K miles. I told them if they could find the timing belt I would give them the truck. Damn thing has a timing chain!! That shut them up as well.
