Yes, they are hardened, well the MIP ones are.

Hardened shafts might not be any stronger, but should be more resistant to wear.

Bending driveshafts sounds quite nasty and several possibilites, as i don't think bending a CVD is a common problem....

-Poor manufacturing quality, maybe you got a bad batch of shafts that are made out of the wrong stuff?
-Big crashes... work on the driving
-Something wrong in your setup/build making the shaft prone to bend (although i can't think of anything you could do on a b4 to make the shaft snag)

Ive only ever bent one driveshaft on a b4 and it took the squat block, wishbone, hub and shock shaft with it.
