This is like putting a full body suit on a AMA bike racer...they hit the
wall and splat.  But the suit keeps all the pieces in :)

Won't do a darn thing for the gears wallowing out the pinion shafts (or from
keeping the crap flying around with the locating pins break)

The only real fix is putting in quaife :)

That being said, I've never had a stock diff problem in any SHO I've had (92
is 220k+ now, lots of drag passes and track days).  I think most happen due
to abuse, and lack of fluid changes/low fluid and who knows what kinda
service history life (3rd and 4th owners these days!)
