The rust section I mentioned appears inside the bar near its centre and the metal looks very ganulated, crystaline and uneven at this point. It looks like some sort of tempering error. Yes I have good photos of it, both insitu prior to removing it and of each side of the break after removal. You are right, I probably am pushing s%^t up hill with regard to any warranty but I still believe there must have been a manufacturing fault given the appearance of the break. I like to corner reasonably hard but nothing I would call excessively hard. So I don't think that my driving style really had anything to do with it breaking. I also don't have a steap drive way with a bad approach angle. I will give Ultra Racing a chance but I won't hold my breath.
