x-bird- How big of tires are you trying to run?
Acefab said it well- most failures/short life come from "Too" big of a tire and too high of gearing when trying to climb hills. The smaller diameter tires are best and lower gearing keeps the clutch from over heating when on terrain other than flat ground. The key to this type clutch is to get engagement and staying there for several seconds for passing air to cool it off some before having to slip again. Pay attention to the engagement speed recommended on the clutch to know if governing the engine down will effect it.
