An engine has an oil tank mounted to an engine wall with clevis ears formed on both the oil tank and a mount bracket. A link connects the mount bracket clevis ears to the oil tank clevis ears. The link has a spherical bearing which is mounted in the oil tank clevis ears. This provides a connection allowing movement between the link and the oil tank clevis ears. The link is a yoke having arms positioned outwardly of the mount bracket clevis ears securing the oil tank to the mount bracket.
