Question with supporting the engine; TTR mount install

Hey guys, quick dumb question.

What's the best way to support the engine when doing the install for the TTR mount?

I just want to double-check how to do it and placement for it. Could be pretty bad if I mess it up hahaa

any jack that you pick, ir-reguardless of how many tons it can support should have wood on top of it. I say this because direct contact from the jack to the engine block could crack the block. Better safe than sorry.

if you put it under the oil pan (like the above pic) then yes, ALWAYS use a piece of wood
