it was probably a combination of the angels and the forces
yes god sent his angels to break your dog bone....lol
what he ment was angle of the arms like on a jump your axle binds in the cup and they snap you might wanna lay off the thottle when taking high jumps and move your shocks to a postion that allows the truck to sit lower shortning the travel of the arms
 
You see, the stock plastic tie rods flex too much in a crash causing the dogbones to bend.
