I want to do the same, especially with my motor mount as it is not in straight which causes issues on the chain.
I would like to "tune up" all of this on my living room slide-out this winter.

To find the aluminum tubes to attach to, I used a stud finder to get a sense for where the tubes would be. Then I drilled 1/16 diameter holes under where the plate would cover then until I found the edge of the tubes.
There is not enough material to thread the tubes. I guesstimate that they only have a .030 wall thickness. I used #12 sheet metal screws.
I hope this helps.
