Well I hate to say, mine is in the same way I can see a little hair crack, but I can tell, mine has been abuse, :X between MX tracks and hare scrambles races, I'm surprised it is still alive, now I'm looking for one, if I find one stock for a few $ I'll get it, other ways I"ll go for an aftermarket one, if any one now's about another one for sale let me klnow.

Stockers aren't the only one's that break. I had an LSR and after Lorretta Lynn's we found it was broke in 5 places! Mike had welded 2 little plates on each rail behind the carrier before we powdercoated it. Well after LL those were the only things keeping the carrier from becoming a whole seperate piece!

I still have an ugly red one on it that I borrowed  :-\  I just don't want to spend the$$$ for a new one  :'(

I feel your pain.  :(
