Default Motor Mount Replacement

My 2000 S70 needs new motor mounts. I'd like to save some $$ and do them myself. The upper mount seems simple enough (bushing replacement) but what is the difficulty level of the rest of the motor mounts? Is this something that is worth spending the money for a pro mechanic to tackle?

I have a 99 S70GLT. The only motor mount I have replaced is the one under the crankshaft on the pass side. It was worn out, ride is much better after replacement. If you enjoy working on your car, it's not hard to do. You need a good floor jack and jack stands. I could not get the rear bolt with a socket, needs a box end wrench.

Are you sure you need to replace the other mounts?
