Dear Nathan,
You need to make a support at the bottom of the outside jaw that will give added support to stop the racking.
You will find examples of this if you search for ‘leg vice’ images on Google to see what I mean. There is a picture that shows a support which passes through the leg of the bench – you will see there are a number of holes in it – you slip a large nail or metal rod in one of these and it will stop the vice from racking,
