The first thing I did today was install my jury struts.
The jury struts are designed to be held in place by a pin and cotter pin. This setup has been known to fail due to the vibration shearing off the cotter pin.
In attempting to make a vibration resistant mount I replaced the normal aluminum inserts with nylon inserts. I riveted the inserts into place and then used a stainless steel sheet metal screw with coarse threads to screw into the holes I drilled in the center of the nylon.
