The ratcheting wrenches would be perfect. Yes, when I lifted the motor, I placed a 2x4 between the jack and the oil pan.

Thanks for info guys.

OrangeGTCS, do you think a set of ratcheting box end wrenches would help were the open end wrenches are needed? Also, how did you go about jacking up the engine to remove the motor mounts? Did you place something like a 2x2 under the side rail of the oil pan and just lift the side of the motor enough to remove the motor mount?

Thanks again.

It's actually rather easy. Ounce the mounts are unbolted from the motor and the mounts are loosened from the cross member, I used the biggest screwdriver I had and popped the mounts out.
