Anyone experience the same problem?

Probably the way it's mounted,not the coolers fault....there is a lot of vibration.....never had one crack on my race car in 8 years....when mounting mine, I take some old rubber bushing from some old shock absorbers and slice them in half for the thickness and use them between the cooler and whatever it's mounted to, gives it a little "play" for twist and vibration.....
