Walls caving in from SACs
Anybody else experiencing this? I know some of the '16 and '17's didn't have reinforced walls, my '18 came from the factory with the steel plates in the wall, however the floor channels are made of PVC, and the screws pull/break through after my 3rd use. Both sides of my walls are caving into the engine, factory ballasts. These pics are right after ballasts were emptied, opened locker and this is what I saw (other than I moved the bag over to see the wall channel better), but the walls were pushed in as you can see.
I'll be talking with my dealer, seeing if SC has an upgrade for this. Seems like the channel should have been bade of aluminum, not plastic.

I didn't know they were plastic!! Mine haven't broken yet, but I'm abusing them... One has popped out once but it didn't permanently damage anything. The reinforcement parts on the 18's are aluminum (I think). I was considering making a set out of stainless with a thicker section depth (not thicker material, but deeper pocket) to help stiffen up the panel itself. I didn't know the channel in the base was plastic though... Aluminum would have been a much better choice...

I also had to do this about a month ago. I did away with the plastic channel and put 1/2 inch aluminum channel in its place. Works good so far.

I just noticed this on mine yesterday. I have the F24 1600lb sacs though so I am not that surprised. I will look for the L bracket when I get home this week. Is it possible to bolt the L to the floor, or are screws the best option?
