Sorry, I don't own a panther. I can't help much except to say look at it thoroughly from all angles, find out why it broke, and how it broke. You kind of need to be a failure analyst with these tanks. Once you conclude the reasons for it's failure, think of what you can do to fix the problem. But don't just fix the broken one... find a way to prevent further failures on the remaining suspension parts.
