I assume you are referring to a Camco (or other supplier) 55572 90 degree adapter (https://www.amazon.com/Camco-55572-L.../dp/B005SB6TJC )
Yes Montana installs the female receptacle on the trailer with the ground plate off by 120 degrees. It is very simple to remove the plug assembly and rotate the female portion counter-clockwise to the 8 o'clock position rather than the 12 o'clock one. That way the plug will hang down as wanted.
A Search on Camco 55572 will give you several of previous discussions about this whole subject. Specifically Topic http://www.montanaowners.com/forums/...ad.php?t=51862 Post 43 provides step by step instructions for rotating the ground plate.
OK, simple fix........
If your ground clip is located on the top of the inlet(like mine was):
remove the 4 screws that hold the cover onto the camper
pull out the cover and some wire
notice on the back of the cover, the plug looks like a regular male headed cord
remove the 3 screws that hold the cord head from the cover
turn the cover to the right 1/3
put the 3 screws back in that hold the cord head onto the cover
put the 4 screws that hold the cover back onto the camper
your done....
