Our K-Member will be available with a solid motor mount option very shortly, we are working on it now. If you can be patience for just a little longer you won't have to do any cutting

Hope that helps!

It's alot more than 4-6 lbs when you go from a stock k-member to a solid mount aftermarket k-member. Plus the extra room to work under there is a big plus.

They don't look to hard to make. They do add a lot of room to get around them and work on things. Here are some pics of mine with stock k member.
