That's one of the reasons the Quaife ATB looks so good. Once set it can't really change unless the gear set wears out - and when did you last have a gearset actually wear out? THe Quaife unit is also a 4 pinion diff IIRC, which is a pretty tough unit.
The ZF lsd in my Merc has worn out and requires a (expensive) refurb and I have discussed with Quaife whether they would build an ATB for it.
