Question Poly Motor Mounts

I put my driver side Polyurethane motormount in on the passenger side Friday. It took me about 4hrs to get it in there I had to pull the A/C compressor and bracket to get the big bolt out but I got it done and back together and driving again. I need to do the Driver side today or ASAP but just changing the one stopped my exhaust from hitting the bottom of my car. Anybody know of a thread or site with some good tips it looks like the drivers side is going to be more difficult............

Good Luck. I just finished doing the same thing. Did drivers side first and wound up having to pull the cat and exhaust manifold to get to the last bolt (top rear). Broke 2 exhaust manifold bolts off in the head removing the manifold. Everything else went great>

Now I am trying to decide what to do.
