I would look into a 241/271. From what I have been told the 205 just won't hold.

You really dropped that clutch, not that that's what caused your problems. It actually seemed to work pretty well for ya.

Like everyone else said, Looked good till she popped.

Can you adjust the clutch so you come out a tad softer.

I have found in my experience that if you come out softer you don't shock load the drivetrain so bad and it makes for a smoother hook. I have always gone farther by coming out soft. just my .02
