Was waiting for this to go sideways......
I guess it's a bit of chicken or egg. Did the TL mounts break, causing the tearing of the metal towers or were the towers damaged previously and the TL's failed due to this damage. Minor structure failure could very easily have not been seen by the OP, so when seeing the broken TL, could be easily taken as a faulty TL and the TL breaking to have caused the tower damage. Again, chicken first or egg.
Like I said before, it's the internet. Easy to see something/someone as dodgy, especially when it's a unicorn problem. But care and consideration is still due, until otherwise proven to be dodgy.
And I'm not surprised TL hasn't chimed in. This seems like an issue they'd prefer to handle one on one, without the peanut gallery. That's what I'd do if it was my client. Particularly on here as threads go south at the drop of a hat.
Irregardless, that's some nasty damage and I feel for you OP. Hope it's something that can be repair and possibly make the TL's work and last as they should. :)
