Brackets are meant to be bent I think?

Look at the rubber mounts. The gap were the metal cup is over the rubber should have even gap all around it. If it's not even the brackets have sagged or bolts come loose/sheared off.

One of the bolts in the offside rear bracket has sheared off, having to weld a plate on to that to get another couple of M12 bolts on the side.

Yes they are meant to be bent I find now that I have got the bracket out, what a pain that was.
