Classic failure point. My guess is the heim joint froze up and it wasn’t allowing the relative motion it was designed to facilitate. It put some severe bending forces on the shank of the thing, and it failed where you would expect it to.
Hard to tell from the pictures, without holding it in my hands, but that thing may have started failing some time ago, and then it let go completely when Wayne took his test drive.
