Completely stock '08 6.7 3500 4x4 (60,000 miles) pulling horse trailer went to pass on the interstate and clucht wouldn't grab at all and check engine light came on.

Has any1 else experienced this??

 

Ive sold a many of clutches to people in your shoes. The stock clutch just can't handle the power a stock cummins puts out while trying to tow.

If you have any questions give me a call

the same thing happened to my bosses truck at 67,xxx miles.i drive it from dallas to atlanta often either pulling a 30 foot horse trailers or a 40 foot flatbed with about 20 motorcycles loaded.same truck.same problem.dealer warrantied it in witchita falls.i also make the same trips in my 03 dmax.only problem i had was a clogged filter and went into limp mode.i carry one with me now!

 

Yelp i went to a dealer and got in a brand new 09 and drove it and slipped the heck outa the clutch when i tried to shift it half way quick truck had 45 miles on it

 

60K is about the limit on a stock clutch in a stock truck, just a bad design all together, give us a call if we can get you in a reliable long lasting clutch.

You must be driving it like a Grandma
