Help!!! Upper Pipe Mount Broke Again.

<< < (4/11) > >>

mikesmith:
Mine broke once a few years back,welded up the bracket and made my own rubber pipe mount.No more breakage yet,maybe because of the rubber mount I made,or could be your not alighneing the brackert to the pipe mount when you weld it?

I hate to say, you are right!
I checked mine tonight, just to see that it had broke "AGAIN!!!" :twisted:

I don't have time to fab up some thing cool yet.
So I'm going to have to come up with some thing simple.
And if it works, I'll let you guys know!

I was out at the track this past sunday and my d**n mount broke again too. I will fab it again too.  :roll: Tis' about what I've been doing for a few years.

machine:
Man this sucks!
I do have a rubber mount @ .5 thick.
I'm using a cheap home mig welder.
I might take to my shop, and  use the good stuff... ?

gowen:
the last weld I did with my home mig. The one before I had done at a welding shop.

Guy's,

I'll try to get a picture of the square mount I made this weekend or early next week. Right now I'm in KeyWest,FL working so I'm out of pocket. The guy at our shop had a problem using a mig welder to attach the new steel mount to the frame. But the stick worked great.
