Need help!

It is a 1977 351M F150 4x4. Bought new motor mounts( Anchor 2444 - Engine Mount | O'Reilly Auto Parts )the driver side(part#2445) does fit. The passenger side won't line up at all.

If I try and bolt up the two bolts on the either side the center bolt will not fit through the mount on the frame. If I bolt in the top while the center bolt will go through the mount but the two bolts on each side are about off around a half inch. I am at a loss here what to do as the old mount is beyond shot and the new one are not fitting correctly.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

try loosening the bolts at trans or transfercase mount and the bolts at the perch to frame .. move the motor and trans combo until you can get all bolts in and started then tighten to specs
