Absolutism...
Just because you haven't does it mean it doesn't happen...
Opposite, is if I say since I've seen several since I started driving
in 1963, does it mean everyone will have it happen...
Mud hen vehicles NOT boulevard dragging. None that I've seen were

Just take your position and the links...if that kind of usage is known

Another analogy is folks saying it does well and lives in racing...therefore
should hold up towing heavy...
Do take that track vehicle and then hook up several tons to it's tail
and then see how long it will last tugging that out on the street
Play the lotto, you have a better chance of hitting than seeing a C-clip axle break under normal use
