How low are you sitting? Has it been aligned?
Something has to be putting extra pressure on it. You said it went while you were at 85mph, was that cruising or were you still shifting?

Since your the only person having this issue, i would say its not "whats wrong with your car", its a user problem. In other words YOU are the problem. You should ask yourself what you are doing wrong...:)

Edit: bolts tend the sheer when they are loose.

bolts also shear when they are overtightened.

and SPC makes so called "performance" control arms. but they are like 4-500 bucks a set
