I have seen a few part company due to harsh wear and tear.

Yeah all fun and games when you’re not paying the bills. I’ve not seen a full separation, but plenty of situations where the cab or bin is on the ground 90 degrees out of orientation to the other

Ongoing fatigue sets in then they snap.

Back in the day when you could still get away with a bit of tomfoolery it was bloody good fun with a twin powered motor scraper, get spinning and keep the power on the back motor.
