Well......pooooo.......no warranty coverage .....

Here is a good primer on CV joints.

One can see the potential "weakness" of this "link" in the drivetrain; however, I would think any type of CV joint should be able to hold together under a 1-2" drop (lowered & loaded car) from the differential to the wheel .....

(after all, that's their job ...... )
