I currently have 25 classic 900s. I have never had a control arm break. I did have a lower control arm crack on the right side of one of my 89 SPGs. I replaced the control arm with another used one. I have a lift in my garage and check the lower control arms every time I put a car on my lift, including friends' cars. I have only seen one cracked, so far.

The photo shows the location of the crack. This was after returning from Carlisle, it was not cracked the Thursday before Carlisle.
