1978 4.9 passenger side engine mount problem

For the life of me I cant get the passenger mount in. Driver's side is in, aside from one bolt that wont quite line up. Passenger side is WAY too close to the frame mount. Whats the trick here? Keep jacking or what?

SOLVED: There are two different mount styles Apparently. Parts stores dont seem to have it together. Part numbers 2441 and 2442 are what my truck calls for, but if I change it to a 1978 F-100 instead of F-150 on Oreilly's website I get two options. 2331 and 2332 are the correct mounts.
