Default motor mounts?

So, i know one of my motor mounts is pretty much trash, and im sure the other one is on the way - im thinkin bout gettin some urethane ones from AM.com. (maybe jegs or summit has some cheaper?)

i had previously tried to install some UPR solid Mounts when i did my k swap, but they were trash and the bolt holes didnt line up at all.

im wonderin, can i install the mounts without having to drop the k-member? i have a tubular QA1 k, a-arms, and stock exhaust manifolds (with turbo piping slightly in way possibly but i can probably work around it) im thinkin i should be able to jack up the motor about an inch or so to unbolt and slide out the mounts and slide in the new ones?

Urethane feel like solids but Urethanes still go bad so go with solids.. And they are cheaper.

im running the poly ones now...but ive gotten the bolts so tight its like running solids. the polys have 4 bolts to adjust the mount strength? im guessing...idk..i tightened them as much as i could

yes you can change the mounts without pulling the motor or the k-member. its just a pia sometimes and be prepared to muscle the motor around and have a cpl extra hands and jacks to lift the thing up from different locations.
