You can replace the subframe (aka engine cradle). I did one on a Ford 500, cost was about $400. The subframe is actually less, I paid a mechanic buddy to help. The engine and transmission need to be supported, the suspension dropped and front brake calipers suspended during swap. If you don't plan to do the work yourself, call around to shops that do engine replacements, they'll have the know-how to swap a subframe without pulling motor.
