Steve - I had the same thing happen to my spax shock conversion, after about
1 year of use. I felt it shouldn't have broken, so I complained to Victoria
British (whom I had bought the kit from). They provided me with replacement
brackets at their expense. (I wanted to replace both as if 1 broke, the
other probably would sooner or later) personally. Haven't had any problems
since (about 2 years now). I think they may have had a bad batch of
brackets.
Good luck - Dave
