Default Any trick to getting the pass side engine mount in?

I got the center bolt in by droppingthe subframe a little but I can't get the side ones to line up to secure them. My tranny mounts right now are just haning loose to give some slack but not dice.

Any BTDT?

Drop subframe? No need. Remove airbox. I accessed the rest from underneath.

Default You are right. I am such a n00b. :)

The reason I dropped the subframe a bit was to get the mount out that was locked in between. I guess I needed a higher or longer lift jack to push the engine up more. I doubled my 2x4's for more lift and mount came went right in and lined up.
