Default Motor mount questions truck vs fbody

I have the mounts (upper, center rubber mount piece thing, and the lower metal piece) that held the 5.3 in the truck, but im putting it in a fbody. I have the new k member with the lower motor mounts welded to it, but what do I need get the motor mounted correctly in my car? Can I use the middle and upper part from the truck? Or do I need the fbody parts?

Yep the truck and f-body mounts are completely different, you will need the f-body stuff.
