put a block of wood under it. the wood will help disperse the force.

I didn't jack my engine up to do it.

It doesnt matter, the pan can hold a lot of weight. When they pull motors you sit it on the oil pan anyways, wont hurt it as long as you dont jack the whole car up.

yes, use some wood a nice square of wood will cushion it and disperse the pressure over the oil pan instead of one concentated spot.

I was thinking what NJHK was saything, the upper doesnt require any removal in installing the mount insert, just lube it up, and put it in..
