Lock up clutch YEA or NAY

[gr8ride4u2luv]

I think Im going to make the purchase of a direct drive lock up clutch. I was told it would be a good idea for my build. Especially since I plan to do more in the future. Who has these and what kind of luck have you had. I do 60 dunes 40 trails and I hope this wont affect my trail riding. I dont mind the harder shifting I just don't want to lose massive reliability!

i think raptor randy has one

if you are slipping your clutch so often, then it would be a YEA

I also heard about slingshot clutch lockup, they are kinda stealthy, but I don't know much tech details about them

I have a slingshot.
It is a nice lockup.
It installs under the stock cover and doesn't push your foot out..

[gr8ride4u2luv]

Have any pictures of the clutch?

[1badazz_700r]

who sells the sling shot lockup? any modification needed to install it? and what disks and fibers do you run AIR. sorry so many questions

The 700 is a drop in now no machining.
You basically remove 1 clutch and plate and install this instead of the pressure plate.
I am running stock clutches with tusk HD spring.
Easy to install and it does not extend the cases out and have a window that has been known to leak

AIR did it make a noticable difference in performance?

[air]

you will not notice a performance gain per say but you will not have any clutch slippage.

Both lockups  are great I just feel that the slingshot is more for the everyday rider.

[1badazz_700r]

i was thinking i would notice a slight difference if i could get all the power to the wheels. cause my clutch has been slipping some,so figured im losing power to the ground

[air]

Then you will feel a gain.

[1badazz_700r]

do the stock clutch plates and fibers hold up good for higher HP quads.Im assuming yours is modded pretty good to need a lockup :grin_nod:

I am only pushing 60 HP on KBR's dyno but I still had a burnt clutch so I put one in.

[1badazz_700r]

well i should be ok then. mine is only pushing 38 hp and 34 lb ft of torque. on the dyno i went to,with the mods in my signature. honest to GERD truth

That dyno has got to be wrong. For sure.
