Yeah I was skimming your suspension build threads earlier. IIRC you installed yours before the aluminum ones came out. Unless you've upgraded since?

Yeah they're only in tension and compression, but there's still pretty high bearing stresses on the upright flanges given their small cross-section.
Also the camber arm is one of the lower members on the upright. This means it experiences high cornering loads since it is closer to the contact patch.
