 LMAO LMAO    I think it might have been more likely the panning of the car into the dune face after that wheelie and the hard nose landing next that did him in though. ;)  Nuttin a strap and crazy glue can't fix .

Posted the video on GD.  Here is a response:

That type of suspension is described as "Leading Link", as the wheel is ahead of the arms.

The suspension is therefore under compression during travel. (Total weight of car pushes forward towards wheel when car lands)

Stuff will bend..

Looks like that car broke the whole lower arm off. Prob either sheared the hiem mounting bolt or the hiem. Only front end damage I have done was when I hucked my car and bent the lower arm up about 1". I jumped down in a 8' deep wash doing 70+. I landed on the front end hard and the arms bent up between the coilover and the spindle. I bent them straight and threw a gusset on and haven't had an issue since. You can see the gussets below the lower arm in the pic above.

Chromed arm probably without hydrogen post bake. It's a Glamis car, not a race car.

Well many Harley riders deck there bikes out with chrome and you would not want to mess with most of those guys so therefore chrome must be tough via its connection to biker gangs. Yah thats it.
