Another front diff bites the dust!

[Mike E]

Ok, I know I like to go off roading but I found this out after I bought my H3 without the Adventure package. When I upgrade in '08 I will for sure have the adventure package.

The dealer called me this morning after having my truck for a week and said they finally found the noise I was complaining about. They opened the front Differential and every other gear is either cracked or broken! Whoops!

It has become very clear to me that you need a rear locker in the H3 for any sever off roading otherwise the stress to the front diff is too much and the gears break. At least this is my take. I off road with other H3's and they don't have any problems with theirs since they have the rear locker.

Anyone else want to share some thoughts on this??
