...and the fact that stainless is good for show cars.

As for "bad driving habits" well, that can be a problem, sure. More likely it was a weak system to begin with, and possibly aftermarket parts with too soft a material... In either case, you could just as well break the next part up the food-chain in normal off-road driving because of the spec-stretching mods and stress. I'm sure EOE's parts are just fine, to a point (like any other part) - they're certainly better than stock parts which is the whole point.

I kinda wondered about the video myself - was it too steep or washy for crawling up it?
