Default Jacking D5 engine

Hello All, I am replacing the front lower wishbone (pulley end) on 2005 V70 D5 and need to remove the two bolts that secure the front bush - one has a badly damaged head.
The engine will not allow the bolt to be withdrawn and need to be raised a couple of inches.
Any advice on how to do this would be most welcome, Thanks

I feel pretty confident jacking on the cast oil pans of these sorts of cars, always using a block of wood to spread out the load. Make sure you're truly free and not lifting the car.

Thanks Firebird Parts, I guess I need to remove the nearest enging mount to the pulleys. Do I need to remove any others or will they allow about 2 inches movement?
