Well, jack the car in the same place you see my jack in the picture. Then place your jackstands in the factory jack locations (yes, where there is a notch) for the front wheels.

Remove the two bolts holding the front of the transaxle crossmember to the radiator crossmember. Remove the centerbolt on the front motor mount. Loosen the three bolts underneath on the rear of the transaxle crossmember, where it attatches to the suspension crossmember. At this point the crossmember is loose. Remove the nuts/bolts on the back of the rear motormount(I think they attach to the exhaust).

Now somehow find a way to remove the center bolt from the rear motormount
