Default Replacing rear motor mount tomorow. Any Quick tips before I start?

Yep, I'm about to replace my rear mount and from what I've heard and read, it's a pain. I've read many topics on how to change this and think I'm comfortable going through with it but just wondering if anyone had any tips and what tools I should have. I have ramps and a jack and the sockets needed, but just wondering what length of sockets I will need, meaning, long deep sockets or short sockets and what mm size each short or long socket I will need.

Also if there are ANY tools that could be handy to make this job alot easier please let me know. I'll run out and buy them. Nothing worse than starting a job and finding out that the 17mm socket I have is too long to fit in the tiny space and need to run out and buy a short 17mm socket.

Thanks all!

for the bolt that connects the mount on the motor to the mount on the frame i suggest using a short socket, but use your 3/8 ratchet. its hard to get a 1/2 ratchet back there and be able to tighten/loosen it

All others with long sockets would be ok?
