what broke at what mile?

the object of this thread is to see what brakes most and when? and what you replaced it with.

for ex.
blown stock radiator hose at 60k 70k and 90k
replaced it the 3rd time with a Samco hose and haven't had a problem since

would replacing the tranny fluid about say every 8-10k miles help prevent the clutch from going? Especially if you drive constantly (I dont mean like commute) up mountains, track days, autoX?
