Motor mount bolts, cant remove. (long)

Ok, the plastic skid plate has been removed and out of the way, the four bottom motor mount bolts have also been removed (they came out with the stud attached). Upon trying to remove the the four bolts that attach the mount to the engine, I find the two bottom bolts are way too long to clear the chassis, especially on the drivers side. Any idea's!

I replaced my motor mount a couple of years ago and recall letting the engine down a couple of inches with a floor jack to get clearance on a couple of bolts. I've attached a link that may help.

egress has it right you need to lower the engine carefully not to pull off or damage the radiator hoses
