Sounds like snakeoil... But would love to hear results if someone gave it a go?

The mechanics of it look reasonable enough, springs inside the blocks press the blocks against the face of the main gears inside the diff, stopping the gears spinning independently. Not sure what extra forces that would introduce on the bearings or whether it would be a long term issue. Also the tips of the gears become the thrust face, as they state if that isn't flat it will wear unevenly and make it useless. If the spring pressure drops over time then it would reduce it's effect too. Not sure how you would get the thing in there though without a big hammer.

Maybe a good experiment for $200......
