Sometimes spending the extra money in the beginning saves ya money in the long run.

That's definitely one messed up clutch. Hope the iron giant works for ya.
Good luck in the pulls. I didn't know you were running such big tires. I can't wait to get my exhaust so I can pull a little here.
How much for the Iron giant and can I still pull my 29' fifth wheel with it?

Going forward you should fine, backing up will take some getting used too...
whats so bad about the backing up with the clutch?
they dont slip, on my old truck we put a vacume switch in the 4lo so you could switch it in and out durring back up.
well I tried 4low 4th gear and thought I had it hooked up good and let of the clutch the rest of the way and it bogged way down, but I only rode the clutch out for like 15 feet, and 2500 rpms so, I just went in 3rd gear and ended getting 3rd place, comp and any others when you pull mine always bounces of the rev limiter instead of going there and staying, and that hurts me a little, I was only 9 feet away from first and 6 from second place, next time I am going to have to go for 3000 rpms and ride it out alot longer, the 37s kill me for trying to get started plus the sled is real heavy starting compared to most
Yeah, my first pull in 4th/4lo i was bouncing off the rev limiter, thats why i tried 5th but they changed the gearing a little and i couldnt get up to the limiter then. I am running stock tires though so i am not slowed up by them.

So you shifted during the pull or changed gears the second time? Also what about videos?
the next pull I shifted down I let off the first time before 75' so I could repull, my buddy just got the vids on his computer so I am going to go over and put them on my youtube hopefully today if not going to be another week
There are big differences between sleds some let you get started easier and pull down the track farther it puts on a better show if you ask me and way easier on the clutch.
