Like Motorhead1 said, removing the lower studs will allow removal without jacking the engine up as much. I should think about this, and exchanging studs on the new ones for shorter ones?

I wouldn't worry about changing to a shorter stud length. I've had a 50% fail rate when trying to remove the old stud out of the broken motor mount. They can break. I like to anti-seize the treads on the new ones.

It fits our V8s and is cheaper in price.

This will fit our Disco 2's? Are they any stronger than the OEM disco 2 mount? I have one AGAIN that is cracked out pretty good.

Well Ebay actually has great prices on disco 2 mounts, I'll just go that route again.

Partsgeek has them for $16.58 ea, but not free shipping, so ebay is probably cheaper. Not many makers out there for these.

Nope, they don"t sell them. I think Summit does, I ordered an ATV battery and some wire loom to get free freight, and it came that Monday. I get overnight from them because they have a warehouse in Las Vegas. Good to know if you are in a hurry, if your order is under $100 the freight is usually only $9,99. Cheap overnight!
