All of the mount changes, etc is only a bandaid if the cradle is not improved with the cross bar welded in. That is the first thing I do to every QL I have had and I have had a bunch. Even if the pan mounts are damaged, this helps a whole lot.
I tried non oem mounts once or twice but did not like the results. If you do the cross brace then the new mounts will last a whole lot longer and worth the extra expense.
