Breaking rear shock towers - likely suspect? - 02.15.2009, 01:19 PM

My brother in law has broken his rear shock tower the last two times out. Both times it snapped off right above the chassis rail mounts for it. (its a 3906) My diagnosis was that his shocks were possibly too stiff, however, I am second guessing myself as they really aren't as stiff as I have seen others drive.
Any other guesses?
