Use an engine hoist to hold the motor up while you replace the motor mounts one at a time.

Engine hoist works great... another option is to cut a large piece of thick plywood (1" minimum) and use it and jack under the oil pan. Make sure the plywood covers the entire bottom of the oilpan or else you run the risk of denting it and changing pickup-to-pan clearance.
