Assume that you are referring to one of the engine support mounts ? Usually a floor jack and piece of 2×4 between the oil pan and cup of jack or at the transaxle depending on which mount that you are replacing is all that you need.
Tell us more about what you are doing.
My wife has a 1999 CRV, but an automatic, so mounts might differ.
Thanks.
It is the mount on the back of the motor originally thought it was a tranny mount but when i got the tranny mount it didnt match up. I found out
they call it an anchor mount, thanks for the advice!regards,

You may find that you’re not able to get the engine up high enough if that’s the case you may need to drop the subframe a little to get the clearance you need. You should also take one of the side mounts loose instead of just jacking up the engine if not you could damage the other mounts. Be aware of electrical connections and vacuum lines you don’t want to end up causing more problems during the replacement.
Sub frame and motor mounts are two different components. Eric is saying both come into play in order to raise engine enough to clear the rear engine mount bolt in center of the mount. Rear mount can be a pain to replace because of this reason.
The sub frame supports everything in the engine compartment and the lower suspension, in fact when the vehicle is assembled the engine and transmission are installed from underneath bolted to this assembly. I believe there are 6-8 bolts that hold this in, 4 in the back and 2-4 in the front.
