Motor Mount Help

Hey Guys

What’s the best location to use to support the engine when replacing the motor mount? I looked at the underside of the engine but I did not find a suitable spot for the floor jack to support the engine.

Thanks

This works better than you'd think! lol! Only word of advice I have is for the Drivers engine mount. It's a VERY tight fit to get it in there, as many here well know. Trick I used was too funny, or so I think. Standing on the mount itself while a friend steadies you actually works GREAT!
