Frame problems need expert help please

So some of you might know that I bought a 1989 pickup and the frame was done for. So i started hunting down a new frame and ended up Buying a 1980 pickup with a perfect frame. I've spent some time cleaning up the new frame and replaced almost everything even refreshen up the sold axle up front but anyways I was stand outside getting ready to start swapping everything over and I noticed that the 89 body mounts were farther apart the the 80s frame now I'm stuck on what I should do. I really need some help from some of you pros out there. If you guys want some pictures just let me know

Thanks

Move the body mounts on the frame to fit or make new ones.
