I agree that the factory unit seems to hold up well, a big part of this is because it is only 40% ltd. slip. The more "lock-up" a diff has, the more strain I would think. Open diffs seem to last forever on most vehicles.
I would say that regular oil/lube changes are a little more important on LSD cars, especially if you track it. Tyson of TRE was recently telling me that he thinks LSD oil should be changed after any track event, due to clutch pack material winding up in the oil from hard G-force cornering, etc....
