Default new clutch, any suggestions

i have a 2003 dodge with 6 speed manual and 3.73 gears. it has about 230-240000 miles on it and after 135000 miles my clutch is starting to slip. looking for something reasonably priced but with good durabilty. i run 35" tires and dont pull trailers regularly and only have a smarty and dont drive like a bat out of hell but i want to be all to put the power to the ground when i need too any feedback is much appriciated

im thinking the NMU70279-04 clutch with new flywheel rated at 600hp and 1100 ft lbs of torque. out the door more like $600 which is more in my poor boy price range. still gotta buy new tires too

a single disc clutch isn't always cheap in the long run I put a Luk single disc on a 04 dodge jerky clutch and was a u joint killer
Put a SB DD on a 06 it was smooth and held the power
