I would tend to agree, and perhaps I'd feel more comfortable if I knew exactly what was causing the rattle. Is it isolated to the chains themselves, or is it the chains slapping against the ramps? I would think over time, if the chains are slapping the ramps, it would cause excessive/premature wear, and possibly even failure.
