For those who do not know the car it is a Feb. 2013 with 15k miles.

I wonder if the Empire kit has something to do with it?

I did a search for Cracked and bent chassis and found nothing directly list as this.

Can you post a link to the page you're referring to?

Thanks.


Dan try looking at:-

Talk Morgan » Forums » Morgan Sports Cars » Morgan Three Wheeler » Cracked and bent chassis .

It is one of the largest threads on TM.

Yes I have a 2012 with the Empire kit, but I fitted it just after it came out--what 2013? My crack did not appear until AFTER I fit the triangular brace the the factory dreamed up to avoid the frame cracking issue. In fact I fit the frame "upgrade" in fall 2016. I found the crack in winter 2017. I have no idea what exactly what caused the crack and I'd sure like to know.

Hope that points you in the right direction and is helpful.

Cheers
