Another really low buck idea: get a piece of 5/16 all thread. Cut it to about 1 1/2 inches long. Clean the case really well, lay the all thread on the remaining part of the case, smear a blob of JB Weld to lock it in place, use a nut on the all thread to hold the modulator in place.

I would at least want to make some scribes or something for jb weld to latch onto that is able to increase that surface area and maybe provide stronger side load support. im just Saying that because it seems like it could be a thing but i could be wrong
