First, I would like to thank all of you for helping me with my battery problem. Now I am looking at replacing motor/transmission mounts. There appears to be a lot of movement of the engine when I start out.
is it best to replace all 4 mounts? Or just the main engine mount? Also. Is there a specific order that they should be replaced once I have the vehicle on jacks?

I replace the upper engine mount first, use a floor jack and a piece of wood under the oil pan to support the engine and lift it to install the mount , the three bolts on the engine side are 15 mm heads and the 2 nuts holding the other end to the body are 18 mm. You have to remove the windshield washer bottle to get the bolts loose and get the mount out.
next up , the rear transmission mount , pretty straight forward all bolts are 18 mm
then after that move to the front transmission mount. Also 18 mm . The upper transmission mount is next , you may have to support the transmission with the jack and block of wood , remove the front and rear transmission mount they bolts to get the end transmission mount out of its pocket.
