With the subframe lowered to do the subframe mounts, it was a lot easier for me to get at the motor mounts (which are very difficult). You can use a floor jack on a thick 12" x 12" piece of wood (spreading out the load) to support the engine via the oil pan while doing this. A procedure like this is mentioned in the manual. Hard to believe you can support the engine via the pan, but apparently true.

There are two 7mm? 8mm? bolts on each mount that are tough to get at, I used a cutoff piece of an allen wrench in a socket.
