I recommend running at least 2 orings because depending on roll center and camber the bone can bind on up travel in the outdrive and break the bone or outdrive with no orings. A friend broke another bone at the track yesterday and I looked at his car and he has no limiters and you could see the marks on the bone where it was hitting the outdrive. And he was running middle width, so it doesn't only happen when running narrow.
Broken them where? I have twisted a '15 shaft on the wheel side off, but that would not be outdrive/limiter issues.
