Anyone broken an axle or diff running 35s on the m190 front end?

[Rick Astley]

I think I’ve seen more m210 failures of the actual case then I have the m190. I know it’s supposed to be steel vs aluminum andthe m210 I’m sure is wheeled harder, but it caught my attention.



and there was a guy on YouTube as well as a guy on Facebook both that let go in a mud hole. I think it was broncbuster that has broken the mounting ear on the differential case.

Yea, have been following up on Mae Pearl's troubles. She done blew up from the inside though. Always difficult to blame poor casing when somebody drops a bomb off inside a gearhousing. Energy has to go somewhere and instead of the back door, hers blew the shaft straight out!

I have a few queries in with old contacts that work in the industry to see what some of the different Herbs and Spice Girls are behind the scene but so far the catastrophic failures are no choosier than a heroine addict in a bathroom stall at the Troubadoure.

Has anyone broken an axle or diff running 35s on the m190 front end? I have mine out on trails just about every weekend and could reallly benefit from the extra ground clearance. Currently have 285/75/16 with 2 inch zone lift. Just worried about long term durability. Would appreciate your thoughts! Thanks.

Yes, I broke mine on the stock 35s with a 2" leveling kit. Running it hard in the snow and snapped it in half

I spy some SAS suspension, are you 2" on top of SAS? Spacer or collar lift?

Factory SAS? You have a beefier diff than me stock. I think 35s would be pushing it long term for my application.

Just seeing this. I’ve been on 37’s with my m190 since july. Off road once a month or so. Been to drummond island, Grayling, holly oaks the UP. I had noisy CV’s since April when I had 33” tires everything was warranties and replaced. Waiting for it to break before I go to the m210.

They are great! Quiet so far good in the snow and rain. I was going to go with the recon grappler but when I bought they were not available in a 37” and 17” rim. I also had to be real with myself 90% of the time I’m going to be in the street daily driving.

I've put 17k hard miles on mine. They surprise me when aired down. Honestly I'm impressed with them. Makes me wonder if I'm missing out on something like a bfg or ridge grappler.

I I be got about 7k on mine. They climb the rocks better on drummond at 10-12psi. I had bfg ko2 before these. The Terra Grappler G2 are way better imo. For what I’ve done.

Nice! The lugs grip rocks aired down awesome. I didn't expect for them to be this good cause of what I read online. Just had to make sure I wasn't the only one who really liked them on the bronco lol
