Thank you very much for the two links, very helpful, and hopefully the subframe goes back in and all the holes line up. If not I'll use the ratchet strap. And the engine/tranni mounts were all changed last year.
I'll check the braces but not sure how to see if they're bent some, they're not flat.

You may need the assistance of a ratchet strap to get everything aligned correctly for re-installation. This would be a great time to replace you engine and transmission mounts while you are in there.

Some posts that I remember:
