I'm not much liking those guidplates,so for now I'm gonna blame them for this.

It looks like the guideplate either was'nt aligned properly @ set-up,or they may have shifted @ some point during running,and thus they loaded the roller axle unevenly and that caused the axles to fail.

Excessive lash may also be a contributor to that as well.

All/any of the times I've seen that style of guideplate used successfully,they are set-up and aligned first,then they get tack welded in that middle bar to keep them from shifting around afterwards.
