I relocated the factory bracket inboard about 1".

Use the inboard side of the stock bracket and add another piece to the K-member where needed. The unused side of the old bracket can be removed or bent out of the way.

bought the braket from polly bushings so im gonna use it but if it starts on the inboard side then i know exactlly where to mount it now. wouldnt have asked but the motor trans and k member are all out of the car so i could not do it myself and i want to have all the welding done before i put my new bushing on
