We had a local customer recently that was complaining about TWO bags peeling on the same truck- and both on the rear. That sounded fishy enough that I asked him to trailer the truck down here so we could check out the system...
Turns out is was a leveraged reverse link setup with no straps or shocks to limit travel. He drives with it locked up, so every time he hits a dip or crest in the road it's pulling those bags apart! The bars with the bags mounted to them went at a pretty good angle at full lift, too, which didn't help the bag any.
He has since installed limit straps, and hasn't had any more problems.
I don't think there have been any issues with Slam bags recently- just issues with installations!
