Solid Subframe/Diff Bushings

Solid Subframe/Diff Bushings
It seems a lot of people went custom to get there...Someone help me by making a second set please.
The closest I got to finding a solution were these threads:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sus...entioning.html
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sus...-bushings.html
There's others, but it appears PBM, Battle Ver, and Titan are the options.
I don't much care for PBM's design, it doesn't change the fact that my bushings are shot.
Battle Ver would be awesome, i'm waiting to hear back about potential availability.
Titan would be expensive, and i'm doubting the ability for Supra Subframe and Diff mounts to work with with SC300 Subframe + Diff.
*edit* for clarification. Battle Version makes Solid Subframe Bushings, FSM Makes Solid Differential Bushings.
Hopefully someone will just pop in here with the nice solution and save me countless more hours of searching.
Now if only my engine problem was as common (revs drop to 1700 then hang up for a bit).
Thanks

Wow, FSM and Battle Version were quick to reply to the messages I sent them. I've been okayed to post their messages
FSM:
Hi Steve,
Yes the diff bushings are always available and in stock. You can call to place the order with a credit card, or send paypal +4% to sales@fsmoto.net
Price is $200 plus shipping.
Some of our other popular branded products are our forward facing intake intake manifold kits, billet NA fuel rails, billet ford style to oem tps adapters, egr block-off plates, solid shifter tri-pod bushings, and more.

Battle Version:
"Yeah, I have them[subframe bushings]. Email me your zip to alex@battleversion.com, they are $175 plus shipping. The front ones are easy to change out but the back ones, you need to burn the rubber out of the mount, then put the aluminum ones in."
He also mentioned only making a few, not sure if these are something he plans to continually make or not.
SuperPro apparently makes polyurethane bushings for most of these as well.

Here's a pic of the FSMoto bushings installed
Sorry for the blurry pic. This one shows what separates this design from the others that are available. Other's replace the bolt and don't use the OEM washer that is shaped to the factory bushing, where these bushings have extra machining detail to use the factory washer to help spread the load evenly across the whole bushing to reduce the chance of galling.

The subframe spacers I have are for the subframe, not the diff mounts like in the picture. Seems like the FSMoto mounts are different then the ones I have. Here are a couple pics of what I have,
Spacers by themselves.
How they fit in the rear mount.
And how it looks on the subframe,
If you look at that last picture, you can see the forward aluminum spacers in the subframe for the front subframe mounts.
