4 wheelin fun, Broken motormount

So i went offroading to day with a couple of friends, One has a 76 k10 chevy with a 350. The other with a 94 Blazer with a lift and a 4.3. well everyone suffered an injury today. The blazer lost a wheel and 5 studs, the k10 a front u-joint and my ford a driverside motormount. my local parts store sells the mount for 23.99 and i was wondering how hard it would be to replace. also would it be a dumb idea to make new Solid mounts?

it is going to be easy with that 6 inch lift. just crawl under there with a handful of wrenches and a jack and a wooden block and jack the engine up a little and change it out. I would not mess with solid mounts. you would not like the vibration. but what I would do is rig a safety chain on that left mount and adjust it so it wont let your engine move more than 3/4 inch. with the torq master 4.9 in there and in low range you can create some awesome engine twist.
