Rear Motor Mount, 2.2L, Manual Transmission

[optical]

I just found that my rear motor mount needs to be replaced. I have a 1995 Camry DX with the 2.2L 5SFE engine, and manual transmission. How is it to replace this? Do I need to disconnect the tranny and exhaust, or can I lift the engine slightly and slide the new one in? Any repair manual available online?

Thanks

you probably can get by with a plywood on oil pan, jack up the engine at oil pan,
space is very tight, 3 bolts on subframe easy to loose, but the top bolt 17mm on top of engine mount is almost impossible to reach. i would say get a 17MM 12 point wrench or ratch wrench, short arm and offset wrench are probably better chance to loose the top mount bolt.

if you take off the dogbone, disconnect ground wire,and the front engine mount top bolt, loose two top radiator bolts, watch all hoses and wires, you can jack up engine further, thus giving you a little bit more room at buttom to work on.
