Baggers full of grass get heavy. Heavy enough that it's a strain on the bagger bracket used on the Ariens Sport Zoom 1232. I've broken two of them. The top bolt hole is very close to the top of the heavy metal frame where it bolts on which makes a stress point. On this third new bracket, I decided to fight back with reinforcements. I added the thickest angle iron I could get at Lowe's and applied it. Here's hoping it lasts longer!

I've attached photos of the old, broken bracket, and the new mount with angle irons.
