jsut shitty welds. they crack on the welds on the side. i just keep soaping mine up. I even tryed mounting it on rubber bushings but it doesnt help. When i rewelded it i hit it with a flap sanding wheel, 1 pass and the welds were off. They dont have enough fusion when they weld it and its very thin metal
