Hey Man
I have had 1 rear axle fail in my XII.
If you have a really good look at the graphite between the inner diff plate and the the end where the tensioning screw is you probably find it is cracked.
Mine was caused by a monumental off which I thought broke nothing.
The XII is really tuff the only weak point I have found is steering knuckes cracking through to the king pin hole.
