i have a 07.5 and its time for a clutch and i am looking for one that will hold up and not drive me nuts when im empty and not hauling a load i have the h&s mini maxx turbo back exhaust egr full deletes electric fans and mostly run on the no power setting but when i load it down hauling hay i turn it up and the stock clutch gives me problems at cruising speeds what would y'all recommend thanks for your input

 

I had a South Bend clutch installed in my 06. They {South Bend} have a great selection of clutches to choose from. In my case I tow a fifth wheel trailer that when it is loaded it can weigh up to 13-14K. My problem was that the orignal clutch would slip when going up a grade with the trailer. I have a programmer {see signature} that when engaged while towing made it slip. I had the G56OK clutch installed and no more problem. The old clutch was not in bad shape just couldn't handle the weight. I am sure more people with more knowledge will chime in. I just wanted a clutch that would work for my use not a big bomber or sled puller just a retired guy who likes to travel...

 

i am looking for the same i typically haul between 15-18k when i move hay and ever since the h&s was installed in 6th gear is wear i get the most slip when loaded empty no problems so i have finally gotten tired of running in fifth when loaded so i figured i would ask what the experts thought

 

You can Google "South Bend Clutches" and check out their web site and see what fits your needs and prices. Also you can call them when they are open. I have no noise or any other problems with my new clutch other applications of their clutches might. Only problem I have had to be honest is when on a grade backing up it jumped like crazy with the trailer hooked up solved that by slipping the transfer case into 4 low. Not a problem after that. Don't know what the two wheel drives do to over come that problem if they have it...

 

If you have any questions call up South Bend and talk to Peter. Super nice guy who will take time out of his more than busy schedule to shoot the bull and answer any of your concerns.
