Shocks plastic cage screw holes stripped

[2wdx2]

I took my Capra cage apart few times now, and notice the screw holes where the shocks goes in (top part) are all get stripped. I did not screw them tightly or anything like that. It started with one and now i have 3 like that.
Anyone else have the same issue ? any solution to this ?

Thanks

It's pretty normal for plastic on anything, screw holes get couple times before they start to strip. Some set ups are better than others. The thicker the plastic thus the longer the screw used, the more times you get by with. Element plastic shock towers run into this issue, but they updated on Gatekeeper and ecto so there is a metal plate that's threaded so this stopped happening.

If possible longer screws or even longer screws and a nut on the back side.

i thought about metal plates. Does anyone makes them for the Capra ?

It's kind of a bad design, as those screws are not something you going to rarely touch, that is the only way to open and get inside... you would think they will put a metal on the other side. For a ~ $550 you would think so .....
