    The damage ocours when the suspension bottoms out, by putting on adjustable springs with reduced travel you will bottom out a heck of a lot more.
    If you are to bottom out the suspension with stock springs you must be driving very extreme.

    I am just giving an explanation to why the subframe fails, I just got the feeling not many people understand why it happens.
    I am not trying to start a fight :-)
