Steve,

It doesn't appear that the halfshaft failed in addition to the lower control arm failure, based on what I see in the pictures. A properly built Jag diff can take a whole lot of h.p.--it's essentially the same Salisbury unit that was used on the original Cobras, I think. But you have to use upgraded halfshafts and control arms. Watts improves things further by providing some protection from wheel flop over in the event a halfshaft fails, I believe. As previously noted, Mike at CWI makes reinforced/gusseted lower control arms, and is extremely knowledgeable. AMP is also great.
