[QUOTE="canyncarvr, post: 502978, member: 16552"] Yes it has happened to others. It is most likely a result of: 1. Not knowing the nut on top of the shaft is LHT...and in 'loosening' it (which is actually tightening it), the shaft is tweaked. 2. NOT holding the shaft at the flat when the above nut is removed, which fatigues the shaft. You mention the bike was not apart before (you say 'this part'. The above would happen without 'this part' being apart). A '93 with NO kips service? That would be odd. Especially since about that year, the KIPS rods that actually activate the subports are reported to be weak spots. Other parts? Yeah. Make sure the main flap and the subports work as they should. You mention binding....the top racks strip before the activating rod breaks. Well..unless one of the two (or both) fatigue issues have taken place. [/QUOTE]
