GS400 engine mounts - who has replaced them? Procedure?
Has anyone on here done these mounts. Does the exhaust manifold have to come off on one side? I cannot find a thread with a procedure for the V8, just a bunch of posts referring to how much of a PITA the job is!

All, I was able to get the motor mounts swapped a few weekends back.
Probably ~3 hours from start to finish. I discovered a much easier way to get these out than dropping the subframe. I had to slide the alternator and AC compressor forward, then access was easy.
I made a video and posted it on my youtube channel "Nolan Motorsports" and the video is called "Lexus GS Motor Mount Replacement - Lexus GS400 (1UZ-FE)".
No special tools were required.
