It replaces the parts (not sure which ones, specifically) inside the differential that allow the tire with the most traction to slip (open diff) with a solid metal part that allows no slippage at all. It's like a locker, but it doesn't come unlocked. It's essentially the same thing as welding your spider gears together. Not particularly good for anything but offroading, otherwise you'll ruin your tires.

I think that their primary purpose is to break axles.

Oh, and they give killer traction ALL the time too!
