The through bolt in the driver side motor mount, that's it. If you try to lift the engine without removing the bolt, the mount will rip apart, and they are NO fun to replace.

What's the need for lifting the engine? I'm in the middle of a front suspension repair with axle out and I don't think I would have to do that with axle out.

The reason for lifting the engine is because the end of the oil cooler lines that bolts onto the oil filter adapter on the bottom of the block won't fit between the engine block and the frame. By unbolting the driver's side engine mount and lifting the engine up by a couple inches it creates the clearance needed to get the end of the cooler lines past the block.
