Default Blown Shocker

ey guys a while ago i had a full car and a full tank also
and went through a bump and the right rear shocker popped.
ive changed it already twice.

i wanted to know why this is happening to the right rear only when all the weight is on the left???

could the heat from the exhaust be damaging the seals and causing it to fail after a large bump???
