Not to argure or start a fight But that seems a little far fetched I can see the possibility of the gouges causing fatigue to the bars BUT the difference of how many people have had that happen to the people who havent is pretty big I would also say the majority of the back yard guys and gals that are workin on these old mopars have used vicegrips more than the correct tool Heck I think theres people out there that dont even know there is a correct tool
