Broken torsion bar support mounts

I keep breaking the rubber mounts that are on either side of the rear torsion bar support. The originals went over ten years and 100,000 miles. Now they last a year to a year and a half or less than 20,000 miles. Anybody else have this problem and know why? This is a '94 Bravada.

the bump stops?

Torsion bar tension is adjustable, so perhaps yours is too tight? Maybe just shot and not returning to it's original shape?

Unfortunately, I know very little about them, and bravadas.
