[QUOTE="Missey, post: 139035, member: 193762"] [size=2]How I fixed mine was to insert a piece of 1/4" aluminum in side the Bracket.(you could 3/16"steel). Throw the u-bolts a way that come with it and use grade 3 or 5 bolts. ( I happened to have some 5/16" threaded rod on hand, did the job )The material the bracket is made from is so soft it will bend and flex before you get it tight on your mounting pole.I mounted a 39" steel dish and when I lifted up and down on the dish arm lightly I could see the bracket flex.When you tighten the motor and bracket use a level a crossed the top of the bracket because it will tighten up on the mounting pole on an angle if you are not careful.
