Thanks for the input. I did look around to find a few contributions to the topic, but none really suited me. The videos I saw made it seem really difficult to gain access to the engine-side mount brackets. I was taught a simpler method years ago. here's how I did it today

Remove:
Negative battery cable
Intake bellows
Idle air control and attached hoses
Bracket holding the IAC (replace the two lower bolts that hold the engine-side mount bracket)
Fan blades
Fan shroud
Belly pan
oil filter


Jack up the car and use jack stands
Use a 2x4 on the jack saddle and put it under the oil drain plug

Remove the top nuts from both of the mounts(driver's from above, passenger's from below)
Remove the three mount bracket nuts from under the crossmember

Jack up the engine far enough to slip the mount assemblies out
separate the mount from the lower brackets and install new
Put the mount assemblies back in place and put the three nuts on a few turns
Lower the engine onto the new mounts. (my experience was super easy!)
Put and tighten the nuts on the top of the mounts
With the jack still in place, install the IAC bracket
Drop the engine and tighten the 6 bolts under cross member.
Put everything else back and reset the clock

I found this method straight forward and surprisingly easy. Took about 1.5 hours

There's a fair bit online, including a few good Youtube videos and an ipd writeup on their website. Google search for '240 motor mount replacement'. I'm sure others will soon chime in here with their preferred techniques. I don't have one, but Bentley has nothing? Haynes and Chilton's have similar basic tips on using a hoist, which front side first and freeing a power steering hose. Mitchell likely has similar. For most of us it's a hydraulic jack with wood blocks. When doing the fronts, in the past I've used double 2x4s on edge as a cross brace between the strut towers to help hold things up using a chain. When I do just the trans mount, I always loosen the fronts to avoid tearing used ones at the front. Nothing like starting out only needing to do one and end up having to do the others.
