Exclamation Worn Clutch Please Help

OK. Ive got quad and bddl stacked and my clutch has had it. My ?'s are can you here a wore out clutch at idle. Also the clutch holds until after 2600 rpms. Is it ok to drive it 75mph on the highway. It still grabs just not at high rpms. its really bothering me b/c i dont have the DD ordered yet. I dont want it to leave me stranded. Any info would help. thanks

I'd say order your new clutch as soon as possible. I've had to replace my clutch twice this year (long story) and if there is one thing I've learned is don't wait on it. Once it starts to go, it'll be fine for a short while, but then it will go all at once.

I watched a guy sled pull with his truck and when he was done you could hear his clutch ticking at idle it was so worn.

drive it easy, you will be ok if you dont give it alot of power all at once - till your new clutch comes in of course. Aslong as you dont smell clutch when your just cruising, it should be "ok"
