Mitch and myself see this on OEM racks as well. Its not just a replacement part issue.

It had always been a concern, even before it broke. I did a session on it, it's like driving on 75 series tires. Make a little set with the wheel, than it's good to drive. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
