nope ! I can post how we do it but not sure if you'll understand...
on a lift ...
-remove the neg from the battery
-support the engine with a stand(under the oil pan)
-loosen the front swaybar
-remover the 3 18mm subframe bolts and one 13mm engine mount nut.Remove the the bracket(subframe/mount support) out of the way, On both side.
-use a 6" long, ball head 8mm snapon or mac allen to remove the 4(per side) engine mount bracket that bolts to the block.
-At this point the bracket drops down giving you the space you need to remove the top engine mount nut.
-install new mount and you're done.
back in 2000-2001 this job paid ( R.R engine) now it pays u0p to 11 hours.If you do our way,about 1.2 hours for both sides.

I think I understood that. I have a lift so not a problem. However, how much weight can
you put on the oil pan? Last time I did it I supported the engine from the top.
Thanks for the info
