Default Need some advice...... (Sierra Cossie)

Can anyone tell me...
Why does the top row of my exhaust studs seem to keep snapping - i've been to Ford's garage and got some new studs and washers again but it doesnt seem to be working??? - would it be an idea to go to a solid cradle type turbo bracket - like the RS500'S? (or horseshoe).... mine is a RWD stage 1 Sierra Cossie. (280BHP)

the standard 2wd one should be fine mate as long as the bushes are not worn, try getting a damper service kit for it should sort the problem
if nit i have a bailey one you could buy
