getrag trans mount bushings

just got done changing the motor, trans, cab, and core support bushings. one of the bottom bushings for the trans seems to be different from the other in the material it was made of. when i tighened the bolts i could compress one bushing and and it wouldnt get tight, i could keep socking it down (its kinda a more spongy material than the other). while the other got tight within a few turns and stayed solid (uncompressed). if that makes sense. what is the recommended torque for these bolts?

i got all the bushings from autozone. next time i think ill go poly....

when i did mine i just cranked down on them.....but backed off some because i got to thinking that if you squish them down to much, then they'll loose there shockabsorbing ability.......????? Don't know for sure, just a theory.
