Pro's: you can fine tune your diff to your liking depending how loose or how tight your set it. It puts power down to each side when needed.
Con's: Takes a bit more maintenance like checking tightness and more frequent rebuilds. Gear diff is like the RONCO "set it then forget it" for longer intervals than the ball diff. Overall the performance gain out weighs the con's. Although there are those that say otherwise I'm sure.
