    I could not zoom enough to see exactly what broke, but assuming the guy is into "cheap mods" like this plastic dip all over the truck. My guess is this is the result of over compressing the strut assy, using a spacer lift, at speed. Probably tried to hop that curb and bottomed out the strut travel, causing it to snap??

    Just a wild guess, but otherwise poor 2nd gen in so many ways.
