John;
It seems, alas, these "solid" mounts are cast aluminum but are not as strong as
they appear. As Rob Pennington mentioned, his cracked at the bottom of the
U-channel in one of the mounts. So did mine and I needed to buy a second pair.
Why
someone doesn't simply machine them out of a block of 6061 aluminum billet, I
don't understand. They seem to charge enough for them to be made of billet! My
tip: make certain the rack is correctly positioned prior to tightening the
mounts, to avoid repeated episodes of tightening and loosening. This may weaken
the mounts.
