Response to Never has AFAIK

Ive heard that using poly bushings on strut rods increases the demands on the strut rods. When the strut rod binds and flex's to travel with the suspension I could understand how they would weaken and eventually break. High Braking Forces and really twisting the front end would to me load the Strut Rods. How or why did yours break?
Having a strut rod failure could get really ugly real fast
