So the "clip" was on the left side of the trailer, and the depression is on the right? And the depression wasn't there at the factory? Or at least wasn't noticed? It sounds like the entire back end of the rear shell was pushed violently to the side, but the lift arm didn't move with it. Shane, Larry, isn't the lift arm attached to the shell via the pocket stop in this area? Could sudden movement of the shell but not the lift arm or pocket stop have somehow made the inward dent (depression), or set up the conditions for later addition of the depression as the shell was closed?

I have to admit that I am hypothesizing well beyond my level of knowledge, but you guys are the experts.
