Help: Cusco Engine Mount Install

Today, I tried to install a Paire of Cusco engine mounts to my car. I jacked up the engine through the oil pan with a trolley jack and a piece of block. All went smoothly until I tried to align the studs on the mimic ts to the subframe holes.No matter how hard I tried, the engine does not move a bit.

Does anyone have any ideas what should I do?

Thanks a lot

Did you unbolt the 2 large nuts on the bottom of the front cross member, and then the 4 bolts holding the left and right mounts to the engine block....??

On the new ones. are you sure you have the "fronts" towards the front and the "right" on the right side (and the "left" on the other side ...)... ??

Yeah man, checked the orientation and it is all correct. Ended up using a pry bar to pry the mount until it aligned and had another person drop the trolley jack...all sorted now...cheers
