Just a heads up with those new clutches. I would always worn my customers when I installed a new Eaton Posi with those clutches to be careful when doing a burnout. If they were going to be drag racing I would warn them to skip the water burnout and to never do a burnout while holding the brake. If those clutches slip they will over heat and glaze. Then they don't work anymore. Back then Eaton was still making the original 18 disc steel clutches and I replaced several sets of the new clutches with the old ones for drag racers or people who liked making tire smoke. It's been several years since I bought new clutches so I don't know if Eaton still makes the original ones or not.
