Update: I pulled around 17K this week with a few slips then back to stock and I can't even get it to slip if I try. I'm going to keep on trucking and see how long this will last. I'm not worried about a tow bill. I have friends that owe me favors so someone will come and get me for the price of fuel. I know I'm a knuckle-head, but I want to see how much more I can get out of it. I have 95k on the truck now and it first started slipping around 78-80k. Thanks for all your input and I will keep posting updates for a while I hope...:w2:

not long better get a new one soon and it better to spend the extra for a dual disk ..
you would feel really dumb buying it twice but thats just my opinion

my tranny wouldnt hold when i had it set on level 5 but turn it back to stock it lasted me a good while till i had the $ to fixer up. take it easy and you will be suprised how long itll go especially if you dont have to worry bout the tow

I found a brand new Southbend DD 3250 on craigslist cheap and installed it at 120K. The stock clutch was still working so it lasted for over 40k after it started slipping. It chatters more than stock, but so far I like it.

I had 205k on one of mine before I lost the clutch.
