By viewing the pictures only, the third picture in particular, I would warn anyone with the same hugger to make sure there is always proper clearance between the support and the brake caliper. There is considrable vibration in that area and although the Ilmberger is designed to handle it, it looks like the stress fracture occurred at that spot where the strut touched the caliper. Does anyone remember twanging a ruler on a desk top during old school days and changing the pitch by sliding the ruler in towards the desk? The vibration was concentrated at the point where the vibrating part of the ruler touched the desk. Without ZYGLO or X-Ray it does appear as though there is slight vectoring of force eminating from that point of contact on the strut.. I know that this a lot of supposition on my part but maybe it will help someone else and prevent them from going down as a result of another failure. One might also try chamfering or negative radiusing the edges of the support arm
