Default Gearbox mount

Thinking of things to do before the ring trip and I’m planning on fitting a group N STI gearbox mount. Is this a job I can do easily on the drive? I was thinking of getting the front up on ramps then using a Jack or axle stands to support the box while I dropped the cradle and swapped the mount out.

Are the support bushings worth doing at the same time?

I'm going with Group N Pitch mount and Gearbox mount as well as the whiteline crossmember pad bushing - unfortunately there aren't any uprated engine mounts for the H6!

I'm also doing front ARB (or possibly just bushes as I like the balance with just the rear uprated) and steering rack mounts to try and finally get rid of the knock from the front left as they are the only parts not replaced or uprated!
