The passenger side won't fit hook up... hits the oil filter. Now what?

Re: CJ six cylinder motor mounts
 

You have the wrong oil filter in it, two can fit. The proper one stops
about 1/4" short of the mount hook.

Re: CJ six cylinder motor mounts
 

And besides that, now that I have started it, mine rolls to the passenger
side when I accelerate.

Thanks for the help anyway Mike, "torque hook" makes since now. Maybe
motors roll opposite in Canada. :-)

Re: CJ six cylinder motor mounts
 

I missed or read wrong your 'roll to the drivers side', I was distracted
by some friends, the fan spins that way, the motor rolls the other way,
hence the hook on the top of the passenger side mount and on the bottom
of the driver side one.
