Unhappy Motor Mounts

I thought I broke a suspension part at a recent AutoX event. Started hearing a loud pop when accelerating hard and at launch. My first thought was that I had broken and end-link for the sway bar. But the car wasnt habdeling any differently. After getting under the car and checking out the suspension, everthing looks good. It has been a few weeks and now I have noticed that the enging is leaning a little towards the passenger side. What brought this to my attention was that the coil pack on the passenger side is lower than on the drivers side. I thought that these were at the same height before...Can anyone with a similar model let me know if these are supposed to be at the same height? I have a 1998 GT. If this is the case, looks like I broke a motor mount. Can anyone advise on the repair cost, or should I just try to do it myself?

well engines tq from left to right, so the driverside(left) is the one thats prone to breaking most of the time. if the car is an automatic, it's eash to check. if you find you do need new mounts, get the ones for a convert as there a tad stronger on the leftside mount and the prices are the same vs non-converts
