I have a set on my shelf, just like that. For some reason they just don't fit!

Re: What is wrong here?

Are you saying these are the wrong part number? Just seems like they would contact more on the frame side. Looks like they hole further back would. Be the right one but then why they dont line up i know the bolts are too long i just grabbed what i had laying around tell i can figure this out. Damn u orielys auto parts!

!whats the corrrect part number this is all they listed

Re: What is wrong here?

measured from spring shackle eye on frame to crossmember for trans, the passanger side is 1 inch closer to the front, thats the most off mount too for the motor. looks like theres holes to move it back, drivers side was 13" passanger side was 14!

why would someone put the passanger side closer to the front seems crazy.

gonna loosen motor mounts up and unbolts the tcase isolators and trans crossmember and slide it back to the other set of holes on just the passanger side. see what happens.

maybe the last owner was a drunk mechanic or something.

Look at the lite side - - at least you don't have the chrome trim in your windshield gasket which makes it a lot easier to change
