I can't imagine they would hold under any sort of load... those gears turn at pretty high rpm... torque just lifts the buggers out of the way.
Think about it... path of least resistance.. the piston spring and rig is far heavier a pull to move than a tiny little spring on the self shimming gear. As soon as any sort of load is put on the system, stuff is going to shift before it even gets to the main spring.
