so ive built up an explorer for the girlfriend its a 93 with a 8in lift and 36s and the rear end is welded , clutch slips rilly bad when she takes off ,goes up hill etc.. clutch is only a year old , its got a dyna pac clutch in it , you guys had good luck with any type of specific clutch with a lifted rig , i was gonna try a center force but my brothers got one in his b2 on 35s and it slips just as bad
i know the welded rear end probably dosent help at all , gonna put a LS or a different locker in it , just figured i better change the clutch well im at it since its probabley pritty glazed and burnt by now

any info would be awsome
 
my first thought: does she know how to drive a stick? (lol)

my second thought: lincoln locked and 36's, which brought about my next thought...

what gear ratio?

without changing radios, it's putting massive strain on the engine and drivetrain components, like the clutch. Making them work harder. Could be your issue right there. OR it could have something to do with having a bad leaky slave cyl that's spilling brake fluid on the friction disc of the clutch system.

I have a Spec brand Stage II clutch in my truck and it performs flawlessly. Even when I was 35's and just 4.10's. It slips when I need it too when crawling. And grabs like a mother when I need it to. I've heard that the centerforce doesn't take to kindly to off road rigs(where slippige is a must).
 
ya she can drive a stick good , thats all shes driven , her explorer has 4.88 gears in it , welded and 35s and it still slips , slave is also only a year old dont see how it could be leaking already and it dosent go through any fluid
