i got a tb42e and the top strap thats welded to the two side tanks keeps breaking after hard off road trips. its just the welds that let go, nothing breaks just seperates. i gather its just due to flex in the body and the mounts dont allow for enough movement, but has ny1 had this and have a good fix????

yeah had that done twice now, and yeah cost me 20bux!! the two top ten mm bolts ive changed to a piece of rubber with studs on each end to try and get more flex in the mount. it might work!
