use the normal bushes with it, maybe solid beam mounts, depends how much vibration you can put up with as you said you will be solidly mount the diff

standard rose joint on the outer arm and modified rose joint on the inner

these are how the scs and ahmed beams are, they can use solid floor mounts or the polibushed ones
