Well I’ll start this off with I’m not completely sure I’m posting this in the proper subsection on here as it’s my first time posting here, so apologies in advance if it’s not in the proper section.
I’ve read through countless posts from other Bronco owners regarding upgrading their M190 differential to the M210 or M220, but haven’t seen anyone saying they are upgrading their M210 for the M220.
I recently had my M190 fail while off-roading, and I decided I would just try to the fix myself rather that having another M190 put into my Bronco by the dealership. I’m attempting to do this on a budget and don’t really feel like spending upwards of $8k on the one from Lethal Performance or the ungodly amount for a Dana 44 (Yes I’m aware some owners would tell me it’s a lot but so worth it and I should just do it, but I unfortunately don’t have those funds just laying around).
So now I’m looking at buying all the parts from Ford (most likely an M210 4.7 ratio front and rear) but now I’m questioning whether OEM parts are even a wise choice. It seems like the M190 has had several issues from what I’ve read but I guess to make my random a** rant shorter.. Does the OEM M210 have issues as well or is that a fairly solid diff? I don’t do extreme off-roading, mostly overlanding. Hopefully my question make sense?
Thanks in advance,
-Chris.
