so it's not the uprated bits you've broken it's the un-up-rated bits that have become the weakest link now then ?

Problem is you keep uprating and sooner or later your steering box or the actual column become the weakest link

Doesn't it worry you that the uprated bits bent? Especially as don't you sell some of these parts to others?

so how do you make sure the axle doesn't shift backwards or forwards as the spring usually sites up with a pin doesn't it ?
