I did recieve a call from the guy who actually makes the brackets. He offered to send a new one but being that I already had it fixed, he offered to mail me a new coil to replace the damaged one, even though it works fine. He also said he was going to look at the part and either widen the piece that comes down or try using smaller holes. Atleast he's trying to fix the issue and is working with me. I expected nothing and am atleast getting help from them.

Ok so here's the update,I just received the the new bracket they redesigned.Tell you what,they should definitely fab them like this.Like i said before I went thru 2 of them and they both snapped the same way.i believe the holes they drill for the coil mount are too big and only leaves a little metal on each side.You will see the difference in the pics.The new one they welded up is a little thicker and wider.It sits a lot better between the jugs as well.So here are a couple pics..Im 100% satisfied now,lets see after some miles
