Default Axle mounted servo plate, TI or SS part available?

I've been running the rig for a bit now, and noticed after doing some upgrades last night the servo body just a shifting side to side on the mount. Hoping to find a little help for an upgraded platform, searches have yielded little support, so asking the community.

Running 2.2 ripsaws (stock), upgraded to the PB RB2 last night, looking forward to running them.
Since trashing the stock tactic servo/plastic servo horn in the spawn rtr, I upgraded to the Savox 1230 and aluminum horn, its been solid. Additionally run the VP TI linkage.
That too has been solid, when I noticed the servo chassis was shifting laterally, broke it down and found the vertical support has become loose.
Further digging revealed that one side is a static hole of the AX30777, the other hole is slotted (looking at replacement parts, this is by design) and taking some abuse/shifting within the slotting, enlarging that hole.
Tightened it all up and we will see how it goes, but I'm expecting this part to fail and would like to replace it with stronger parts.
Does anyone make an HD version (SS or TI) that will withstand the 500oz/in torque of the servo?

Thanks for the help!

Aluminum servo mounts, a new stock or after-market servo plate, Axial #AXA0109 screws and thread locker on all the screws. Also be sure to check your end points on your remote, your servo shouldn't be sliding if your end points are set and everything is tight. From your description the servo has probably been a little loose and/or the plastic servo mounts have been flexing. If your end points set too far this may keep happening because your steering locks at full range, but the servo keeps pushing.

Axial replacement plate, don't know of a steel, stainless or titanium plate available for the Wraith but I don't think it's the actual problem.
