What clutch have you found that takes abuse real good. (I'm thinking a sintered metal.) This will be going between my Np435 and my 460 for my 4wd. What do you truck pullers use?

Also looking for a bell housing, any sugestions?

The occasional mud bog once a month or two, knock around and roll around the streets scarring the general public. We don't have a exact idea on hp but I wanted to start lining out parts. (manufacturers) Figure out what the budget needs to be.

I think a good pressure plate and a brass button disk would work good. I had one in a truck that I drove daily and pulled on the weekends. It had about the same power your looking at making. The brass one won't wear as fast as a iron disk. I run sintered iron disk in my pulling truck. I used a single disk for several years and I don't think on of them would work good for street driving.

Thanks! I'll do some searching on the internet for a manufacturer. I just don't want it to be junk after the first time it slips like the factory clutch materals.
