Trying to find a decent set of bolt on bottom damper brackets

I have had 2 sets and the threaded part is crap alloy and the thread just gives in when any pressure is applied

have searched the web, but they all look the same crap alloy ones

Anyone had a decent set with a proper "bolt" part??

Why don't you ask Steve (Shocky) to weld lugs on your links - much better than those clamps.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean there Dave. Do you mean the bolt on damper brackets as per your dearly departed SX, or the damper studs that screw into the links? I only ask because the latter is readily available from reputable dealers.

Im working on two bikes at moment that have them fitted and they are decent. Sorry no idea where they are from but they are out there.
Not tried them but Casa make some
Preference would be welded in the longer run.
