    You will need to edit a php file via FTP or using Cpanel File Manager.

    go to includes/languages/english.php and find the following lines of code:

    define('TEXT_PRODUCT_WEIGHT_UNIT','lbs');

    define('TEXT_SHIPPING_WEIGHT','lbs');
    Change to:

    define('TEXT_PRODUCT_WEIGHT_UNIT','kgs');

    define('TEXT_SHIPPING_WEIGHT','kgs');

    NOTE: depending on your shipping modules you may need to convert the weight back to pounds or pounds and ounces ...

    You only have to worry if you are using a shipping module that uses pounds.

    Use your Admin> Tools> Developers tool kit to find the other language files that use "lbs"
