Running a Duraclutch on my ‘18 RZR XP1000 Trail and Rocks. Have about 4000 mi on the clutch, lots of rock crawling and desert trails. 20,000 total on the machine now. Had a duraclutch on a ‘15 RZR 900S before this for 7000 miles. Only way to go for playing on the rocks!
Good video. I have it on my new trailhead xp4. And it’s awesome so far. 300 miles on it right now. I put 3000 miles on a standard general with a gilomen clutch kit and hunter works belt. There is a night and day difference between the setups. Worth the extra money.
I have 2022 trailhead 1000 xp4 also. Having clutch problems. Clutch was replaced under warranty at about 300mi. It's bad again taking in to shop for warranty work again. After it's fixed thing about pulling off that clutch an putting on after market. Are you still happy with yours? Did you change cont
Hello west Tx. I am having trouble with my Duraclutch. I started having noticeable noise difference at 1000 miles. I noticed the interior clutch pack started to have unusual wear and some cracks in places. I sent pictures in to Duraclutch and received a run it verdict from their rep. (2020). The noise sounds like it has a bearing going out now, wired clunking and I am up to 1500 miles and it is 2022. 700 $ for the rebuild and another 50 for the secondary build plus a new belt for 140. Not sure it’s worth it. Anyone else having issues. Sure like the clutch, but the over a dollar a mile figure is what hurts. Thanks Curtis.
All is well, haven't been out with Pepe lately! It's hunting season, I'll have a video up from that soon. We need to get out to the Robledo's and get some crawling in.
In the year and a half, how many miles and belts have you gone through? The Dura clutch seems like the way to go. Also , does it have good down hill engine braking?
I'm looking at doing a gear reduction or portals and 35's on my 22 General XP 4. I ride the highway as it is street legal as well. How fast can you go with the 35's, 30% portals, duraclutch, and tune?
Good afternoon, I sent with a 30%reducing on the portals. The XP already comes with a 12.3% reduction. I love the lower gearing that low and reverse have but high is on the low side. When I'm showing 60mph my actual speed is 45mph. I bought the gears to raise my high gear only 12%. If you were to install the 15%portals, I think you'd be just right on factory gearing in all the gears. It's hard to say what my to speed is, because I haven't tried to run it flat out since I installed the portals. I plan to install the high gear increase and the heavy duty reverse chain in fur very near future. I will post a video of the install and then another on the first thoughts
@@westtexastarantulaoutdoors3751 SATV makes a 13% gear reduction that I think would be about right if I don't do extreme rock crawling. I'm afraid the portals may make mine too wide. I think you said yours is 75" wide now. Hunter works is saying I need a lot more than the 13% though. I have stock gearing now with 32's. I put my friends 35's on the back and tested it on the road in low and high and it wasn't too high geared at all with the stock gearing but on some slow rocks would be different. I'm trying to decide on what would be best for low speed belt grip for the trail and still be able to highway drive it. I know there isn't a clutch system/combo that would do great with both. I'm going to have to settle for something that isn't great at either but ok for both slow trails and highway. I'm leaning towards 13% gear reduction, 35's, and a Duraclutch. Your thoughts?
If you're concerned about width then portals might not be your best option. However, with the extra width you get way more stability as well as the portals take the beating. What I mean by that is the gear reduction at the portals takes all the abuse and heavy wear away from your drive line. If you do a transmission gear reduction, then keep in mind that your drive shaft aarms axles will bear the stress of the 35 inch tires. Yes the machine is wider, but has become a total beast. Good luck on your decision on which way to go
I had already installed the Gilman ECU tune. The Duraclutch is not paired and tuned for the Gilman tune, so I don't get at the benefits of that tune. However, the extra performance of the Duraclutch, is well worth the money. I'm not saying anything against the Gilman tune, there are so many benefits that you get with that tune. I'm very happy with my overall performance and where it is at!
