Another issue is that the threaded hole that attaches the mount to the frame is only 0.39" deep, so the factory bolts (with the "dog point") will not work. I bought aftermarket bolts and had to use washes to get the mount snug.
Sorry that the NAPA part numbers I listed were no longer available. If the mounts you got from Ames required trimming material and/or shimming you need to call them so they can investigate. They should at least put a note in their catalog
