    Exactly! Way easier :)

    I put one of the old ones in the vice at home and hit it with a grinder and cut-off wheel. Took about 90 seconds to cut through so won't be too bad.

    There's no issue cutting them, just do it right. Set the length with two nuts then cut off with a cutting wheel. When you back off the set nuts it will correct any little lip that was made by cutting.
