I have never heard of a Ridgeline breaking any axle with or without a lift. At most you might hear of premature CV joint wear with a lift but I have yet seen any proof it is cause by the lift itself, mostly user/mechanic error during installation an tearing a boot without noticing and it causing a grease leak.
I have a lift on my 2008 with 40k miles on the lift and no drive line issues.
