On mine, it appears that there was a lot of strain on them. One was sheared completely off and the other banged up pretty bad. The other retaining pin for the kingpin (which also serves as the bolt for the stop) was bent over pretty badly and looked close to letting go. I may fab something different for stops. I'm adding power steering which could slam them even harder.
