There are still plenty of people that have managed to break the 12k shafts. And honestly, if you spin the tire fast enough and hit the brakes hard enough, then something WILL break. The half shaft is probably the easiest and least expensive thing to break in the final drive train, so better...

Just remember if you DO have one wheel up in the air and spinning: DO NOT SLAM ON THE BRAKES!! Gentle braking is fine, but the inboard brakes means all that rotational mass is going to go through the geared hub and the halfshaft, and out of the system the half shafts/CV joints are the weak link...

I've used it quite a bit on the jeep trails with my foot almost constantly on the brake. You're supposed to do it at relatively low speed. You aren't really building up much heat in the rotors with the speeds down low. If you're trying to go fast then you might have an issue, but it doesn't...
