Want to install rear engine mount.
Engine is up by jack.
Cannot install the mount because not enough room.
When jack up engine, the car is up as well.
Should I loosen the other mounts?
Could I damage the car/engine if I will increase the jack up?

That is correct. You will want to loosen the other mounts so that you can get some separation in order to gain access.

Here is a guide that will help with this in general:

However, you will not damage anything at all by loosening them. Just be very careful that you make sure you have them still with holding with at least a few threads so that you don't drop it on the ground or worse, on yourself.

Please let us know what other questions you have on this. Thanks
