    If you make a reasonably sturdy bracket, there should be no issue.

        Once mounted up, it really shouldn't move at all. The can mounting point is more about holding it up, than holding it on. 1/4" steel would honestly be significantly more than you really need, so that should be no problem at all.

        As a design you could probably make the bracket have a flat edge that sits butted against the can when mounted. This would make the extra bracket not able to flex/move at all and keep it's "angle" back towards the frame mounting point.

        I think once you find that it's mounted though, it won't move much at all.

          lol yeah i know 1/4 inch is almost over kill but i have plenty of it from previous projects. I also thought about the flat edge design so it would have something to rest on.

          i kind of figured it wouldnt move but being that im pretty new to modifications i would rather ask and get advice from someone with more experience by the way thanks for the help
