Front Body Mount Question

So I am welding on some new.. Appendages :) on my 1976 Frame. I bought new front body mounts. I have a question from you guys that have done this before.
Is the Passenger side mount supposed to angle off the frame at 90 Degrees? The Driver side has a rear angle to it. Pic for reference. I sure don't want to weld the wrong thing on my frame.

I don’t know from aftermarket mounts, but the driver side is always a little out of whack.
Might be due to the proximity to the steering box and trackbar bracket, but it’s definitely offset.
Hopefully someone will have the exact measurement soon.

Yes it points aft some, make sure you measure from next mount back to be sure it’s right.

The driver's attachment to the frame is slightly forward to make room for the steering box. But the actual body mount (core support) hole should align with the passenger side. I posted this in your other thread, too.
