My Dad and I are trying to remove the engine from our car listed above. As far we can tell there should be nothing hindering the engine as we removed all the bolts. Of course we have the engine supported by a cherry picker, but after releasing tension, the engine remains suspended. We are wondering how to remove the wish bone engine mount bracket so we have enough room to pry and shimmy the engine off of the transmission.

Thanks in advance.
