Fractured another mounting bolt today, port side rear... this one was a 10.9; anyone else having this issue?




I would recommend using 18-8 Stainless steel for this application. A high strength fastener is not really needed, however a tougher one is.

the SS hardware I used on my hard bags (t-bird) has approx. 40K miles on them with not issues.
