Sweet looking industry you got going there. How about an overall shot?

Check the metal frame. It might be warped(though I never heard of it happening, but its possible), lifting the rear drive just enough so the wheels are barely touching the rails.

Only in a head on.... Seriously, once installed they are pretty tough. They do take a lot of man-handling.
