The engine's done, the tub is sitting on the frame. All the tub mounting
rubber is in place, but the sleeve on the rubber is too wide to pass
through the grill mounting hole in the front crossmember. Should I just
saw the sleeve off, or is there a specific part for this that I'm lacking?

When I got my new mount kit, the front one was different than the rest.
I 'think' it had a smaller sleeve and center hole on it or the sleeve
pointed up at the grill. It was a while back, but it was different then
the rest for sure.
