Because of the nature of Aluminum it would have a definite "service life" based on the duty cycles.

So would jet airplane chassis which have been in daily service for 30 years. It all depends for what amount of cycles they are designed. But those also see very regular inspection intervals, including logging cracks and their propagation.
Sounds like Teo's wheel center might have lived a hard life, even before becoming part of one of his track wheels.
Is anyone aware of any other Lindsey failures (not that one isn't enough)?
