I was on the way out to primer my car today. I took a right turn and my cylinder snapped in half right above the threads where it threads into the bracket. I was wondering if anyone knew what this could be from or has heard of this hapening to anyone else?

I am guessing you are talking about the cylinder being on the front. I have heard of this happening many of times and so have others. Its cause the stress on the cylinder and they aren't made to be turning. I am not quite experienced with them but I am sure someone here will explain it alot better. But cylinders aren't the best for the front.
