Beside shocks, does anything ever break on the rear suspension? 850

Just completely rebuilt my '96 855's front suspension: control arms, tie rod ends, struts, spring seats, strut bearings, calipers and rotors. A number of these parts were on their second, even third, replacement.

I replaced the shocks, calipers and rotors on the rear, but in contrast to the front end, the rear suspension appears to be bulletproof.

Is this really the case, or am I missing something?

I need to get the car re-aligned, but if there is something additional that is likely to wear-out in the rear suspension during the next year, I'd rather replace it now.

Any thoughts?
