    Ive never seen an arm snap clean like this. You need to start steering around holes or driving at lower speeds

    I've seen that happen before usually when it's a cheap aftermarket part. When it comes to suspension parts I only buy moog as an after market part..

    based on the clean breaks....... whoever pressed out your ball joints to add the adjustable ones, weakend the arms. so they will fail everytime

    Even tho the steering is in specs, the angles of all control arms are off by alot and it doesnt allow the suspension to have its normal travel. Having a lowered car and driving on bumpy roads is just trouble waiting to happen. Thats why I got out of that game: maybe inch in the front and none in the back to give it a bit better stance.
