Hello all..new to forum first post but I thought I would put in my 2 cents. I am a Hummer tech in Sioux Falls SD. We have only had one H3 blow a front diff here. Actually happened on our Demo out on the test track. Truck had 800 miles on it. Got stuck in the mogals (snow and mud) we hooked a chain and pulled it out. Very little if any wheel spin but it was in 4low and as soon as front wheels got to solid ground all the torque was at the front and it shaved the teeth right off the ring gear. Last Dec. I was in South Bend talking to several other techs and at that time the only bigger things they were fixing was the front diff's. Like has been eluded to previously I believe the problemm is week material in the ring gear. I used to build and race 4X4's in the mud and clay of florida and we had trucks with a 1000 hp that never broke ring and pinions.
