just wait till you get a little extra into that good ole motor.. You'll be having issues with traction doing freeway speeds when it's damp out :D

X2... mine will get loose in the rain at freeway speeds if I stand on it.

... well, BEFORE I blew up the clutch disk :)

So was that what it turned out to be, or have you taken it apart yet?

Yeah, blew the hub out of the center of the SBCC 12" clutch. IT was supposed to be good for 400HP, and I know I'm not anywhere near that... but no warranty, so now it's getting the full 13" upgrade /w new flywheel and everything that doesn't have this problem. I'm just glad it broke between my house and work, not somewhere between here and Utah or Cali. :)

Ouch. Why no warranty?

Because I didn't plan far enough ahead when I bought it... and the 12" isn't designed to withold over 600lb ft. of torque while towing more than 8k #. I've now got the really heavy duty 13" setup on the way, will be here Wednesday.
