Floor jack with piece of wood to spread out pressure of jack.

Support engine to relieve stress on top mount.
Loosen (evenly) the three nuts on the mount where it attaches to the block. May need to adjust jack.
Loosen the two nuts that hold the mount to the body.
Remove all nuts.
Remove old mount. Should really replace motor mount studs (3).

Install new mount. Tighten evenly.

Done.

10 min max with a few deep sockets and a breaker bar for leverage.

Yea, I had to replace the top mount on my mom's Saturn. It was fairly simple. I did it without a floor jack, but my brother helped me, as I held the engine up. Pulled some muscle fibers that night! lol I love Saturns!
