I have a 1989 V6 2.9L 2wd ranger. It has a mazda m50-r1 transmission in it. I went to replace it with another m50d-r1 transmission I bought used, and discovered when I went to put it in that the housing for the starter is on the wrong side. In my truck the starter is on the driver's side and the transmission was made for a starter on the passenger side. Looked at moving the starter, but the oil filter's in the way. Any ideas for a solution? Also wondering what years/engines have the starters on what side.
Thanks
