Pinion snubber mount damage

Has anyone ever seen a crushed pinion snubber mount? (The one spotwelded to the car) I'm just curious because I've never heard of it happening or seen any before, except my 1970 340 4 speed swinger. It has the MP adjustable pinion snubber on it, so that's probably why it's damaged... Hitting bumps and bottoming out a lot is my guess? Can launching the car hard over time do this as well?

I already cut one out of my parts car to replace my damaged one. Someone welded a 1/4" plate to the one in my car and it looks terrible! (I'll get a pic of it this weekend) the floor pan is perfect, so I'm lucky there!

10 spotwelds later...
