I "think" the rear shock mounts are the bolt thingies that the shock slides over. The top strut bearings are on top in the front. I dont know if they are called the same thing in the rear.

yeah...the same thing. They are bearings in front because they need to rotate as you turn the wheels and they are solid or just strut mounts in the rear as the wheels don't turn.
HTH,
