Motor mount / Body lift opinions?!?!

Alrite guys
I have a 97tj SE, now i just threw on a 4inch lift and 33s.
the current stock motor mounts are super dead they sqeek and rattle like theres no tommorow. so i need new mounts. i was looking at stock hieght ones but now my attention turns to a1" MORE mount. I also am looking at doing an on board air system down the road that require me to have a 2inch body lift to mount my air tank underneath. Now would i be able to run a 2inch BD without the lift motor mounts? and if i can what are the advantages to lift motor mounts?

BTW if i was going to go with stock mounts any one know where i can get em cheap?

You can, you would have to drop the radiator and whether or not you do the MML, you will most likely have to add a bracket to your shift linkage and maybe cut your tub opening bigger. The MML will help your driveline angles if you are experiencing vibes from the lift. Other than that there is not much. A neg is you will raise your COG.

As far as the stock height MM, it depends what material you wanted and if you were going with the OEM part or a replacement.

Is the 2" BL necessary for the air tank? I've seen people mount them underneath w/out the 2" BL. 1" BL would be a better idea IMO, if possible.
