Broke a couple exhaust hangers on a trail and several bolts installing new shocks/bumpers. Only had the jeep two months so far.

I had a tree branch take off my antenna and crack my windshield when I slid down a hill on a sheet of ice. Then I ripped off my exhaust and dented the hell out of my crossmember on a rock the same day

My 95 xj ran hard for a year and a half, never broke a part the whole time I had it with preventative ujoint and bearing mant/ replacement when needed and small tinkering. Decided to do it all in at once after snapping both front axles climbing the opposite side of a canyon run in the woods and then sliding off a ledge and landing 15ft down roof first and rolling into a mud pit.... smashing my snorkel and filling the motor with thick clay.
