I got my arm reinforced a little. I have a winegard 76 cm. I reinforced the lnb that has the invacom qph on it by putting some rolled up electric tape both under the part of the dish where the arm's bottom is connected to the sg2100's pole and also under where the lnb is attached... between the arm and the lnb. Also did a lot of bolt adjusting to get it just right. I've not had any problems thus far, with my new motor. The old motor, which burned out, I think burned out because I kept adjusting things too darn much. I think I've got this one set, and shouldn't have to fiddle with it for a long while. Also, my plumbness on the pole was a little off so I put a screw in the roof just above and to the side of the dish, and ran some copper wire from there to the pole to move it more in to plumb just a bit - that helped quite a bit.
I was gonna try to put a universal on the side but decided against it since the thing is good as is, and if it ain't broke I don't need to mess with it because I have a midas touch that causes things of this nature to break. Several years ago, I tried installing some pci cards in my wife's (then girlfriend's) computer - it busted - think the main power source got screwed up some how. Luckily we got her another pc a litte before that... I was fiddling with that long coax run over the weekend, and busted the coax port off one of the vcrs - think I've got it connected again, but haven't tried it yet... before I got the winegard, I busted one bolt on an old dish network dish and busted the main elevation bolt off of a primestar... I don't need to screw things up if they are working now.
