Yes, the passenger side needs clearance for the exhaust & cat. Also make sure you weld those bolt on SFC's sooner then later.

What he said, they are almost always different for left/right side of car, also do not bolt them in, weld them in, the problem with bolting them in is that you're bolting them into sheet metal, the bolts can eventually start to tear into the metal.
