Exhaust bracket keeps breaking 700 1989

My front muffler exhaust bracket tends to break every year or two. Sometimes I manage to weld it back but this time half of the bracket is gone - there's nothing to weld back.

This is my 2nd OEM bracket in 5 years. Have anyone had this issue before or is this considered common? Anything else I should check? My idle is fine and smooth.

I'm thinking of buying a new one from FCP this time around (starla brand). I may have better luck. How are these Starla brackets?

Thanks
