This is good info from 4crawler.com (spacing is kind of rough, sorry, I spent about two hours making it space out better and be color coded)

If using aftermarket poly body mount bushings:

Color Code:
Part supplied in body lift kit
Part supplied in poly bushing kit
Original or existing part

          XX              New longer bolt
         ----             Factory Washer, either tabbed or round
~===========~   .Floor of the cab or bed
       +----+
       |   .   |            Body Lift Block
       |  .    |     
       +----+   

      --------           New washer (if supplied w/ poly bushing kit)
     +-------+
     |     .     |          Large poly bushing (Body or cab only)
     +-------+

   ==========       Bracket off of the frame  
       +----+   
       |  .    |            Small poly bushing (Body or cab only)
        \-.--/   

        -----        .     Factory Washer
    .     XX        .       New lock nut


If re-using the stock body mount bushings, the picture is a little different:

Part supplied in body lift kit
Original or existing part
 
          XX              New longer bolt
         ----             Factory Washer, either tabbed or round
~===========~ .  Floor of the cab or bed
       +----+
       |   .   |            Body Lift Block
       |  .    |     
       +----+   

      --------           Factory top washer (bonded to body mount bushing, not separate)color]
     +-------+
     |     .     |          Large factory rubber bushing (Body or cab only)
     +-------+

   ==========       Bracket off of the frame  
       +----+   
       |  .    |            Small factory rubber bushing (Body or cab only)
        \-.--/   

        -----             Factory Washer
    .     XX               New lock nut
