I know Marc of MNR strengthened the new design ones as used on the MNR's so may be worth asking him. worth doing a search as there was a pic of
a broken one a few months back

If you take a photo of the back of yours, I will amend the photo to show where they've broken in the past and know whether yours are the
modified ones or not...

Hi
Some pictures can be found HERE
When they where tested they where given a 700Kg safe working limit. Basically not fit for the purpose of being used on a car IMHO.
