Message: 1999dakota, as you have found, the mounts are different from a 4X4 and the 2wheel drive models.
With the 4X4 the mounts bolt to the engine, and part of the front drive axle housing and the frame, where the 2 wd bolts to the frame and engine only. You should be able to swap the mounts from the 97 engine to the 99 and make it work ok.
Good Luck
