Please hlep need new clutch for my 04' 3500 have edge attitude chip and slips when turned up stock clutch won't hold what is best clutch to buy for my truck?

I would strongly recommend the Southbend line. They are the only ones I even consider selling to customers. Personally my FE series has taken all I have dished out to it over the past 30,000 miles. It is rated at 550 HP and has done fairly well since it is daily driven at that level or higher every day.

Do you feel it slipping or does the attitude tell you it's slipping? Ignore the attitude. Mine tells me my stock clutch is slipping anytime I'm accelerating. I've seen 40% slip before and never felt it. I don't think my stocker would have made it 90K with the Juice installed if that were true.



Try a search for clutch slippage with Juice. There were a few threads about this a year or two ago that might help.



If it is you clutch, Southbend (SBC) seems to be all the rage around here. That's probably where I'll go if mine ever pukes.

I called Peter at Southbend and he talked me through the purchase of mine. I am running the 3250 DD 12cb and have yet to see it slip with the smarty and TST stack. It is very driver friendly and is not too grabby. Backing up a trailer would definetly be possible.

Yes, it took a couple of third gear starts and now it is all smiles.
