Default Motor mount

I've got a 2016 JK, it had a front end collision, not terribly bad but it damaged the right front motor mount. It looks like it would be relatively easy to replace other than I don't see a way to get it out of there once it's lose. What's it take to get it out of there, any help would be appreciated.

I don't usually post links to other venues, but this thread might have some useful information for you. It doesn't sound difficult, but it does sound tedious and time consuming.

Thanks for the link. I went to it, it's listed as 3.6L motor mount swap but what he's describing isn't what I'm seeing. The drivers side looks like it would just slip out, the passenger side looks like the motor needs to be lifted or shifted. I think lifting from above is the way to go, I was thinking it looked like I could drop the drivers side mount out and shift the motor that direction to get the passenger side out. I need to get under there and look again,

Thanks for the help.

I might be pulling front axle tonight. I'll try to take a look at mine while I'm down there. Haven't had to change one of these on my jeep yet.
