If your talking about factory 4.10 mini truck gears then no you usually don't see a lot of them broken. It usually takes more HP and torque than a 22r, but anything is possible. The steeper the gear the weaker they are so a 4:88 is weaker than 4.10 and 5.29 weaker than 4:88 because fewer pinion teeth touch the ring gear at any given time.
