they do help, though I still blew my birfs and axles, if anything the rings help keep the birfield in sorta 1 piece when they blow
I know mine had about 10 crack lines in each


Driver side expanded enough to strip the splines on the birf end of the axle the pass side stayed tight enough that the axle snapped at the carrier end

It's preference really. I'm a firm beliver even with 33's a sammi axle will survive a long time with a light foot. I've alwaays ran 33 boggers on mine and never broke a burfield untill I installd a 1600 16v. After that it almost seemed if I even thought about doing the rocks a burfield would break. So I got a set of burfield ring from breeze ind. and never broke another burfield because the axle broke and made the repair time from about 30 min to about 1 1/2 hours.

I would rather get the lifetime warrenty shafts from autozone and replace them. Just my.02
