Default stg3 4x4 what clutch?
I have just started to notice the clutch on my stage 3 4x4 has started slipping. What clutch would people recommend and who is the best supplier?

Most people will probably say Alcon 6 paddle.

yeah the 6 paddle is perfect for that application, still drives almost exactly like a normal clutch but grips better.
