The support struts must have worn bolt holes or installed incorrectly for this to happen. This is not a normal occurance.

Just had to fix ours, center piece was @ $375.00 the struts were @ $1400.00 ea. Ended up repairing them by making a disk out of 4130 and welding it on the worn piece. the extra thickness gave a little extra space between the strut and the sump
