Neither have I broken shock tops, roll bar mounts or hinge pins, so I'm a little at a loss at how you can break these parts so frequently.
I race the HT arms and will continue to do as they're, in my experience, nearly unbreakable.

See Ive never broken a hub or an upright.

Its usually after clipping a track marker on the inside and its only after the race I realise there's bits missing.
