Default rear end woes...

so it seems my rear end clutches are slipping, I'm turbo running v710's, so ya, I expect shat to wear out, and I've had the rear apart to change the output shaft so its kind of a pita part to be replacing all the time, is there any kevlar clutches or something stronger than stock available or should I just run the stockers and expect them to burn up every season, though its only 160 bucks for both sides of stockers, if anybody has better ones shoot up a link... thanks

Justin Abbott at ZIP Products (VA) has done some neat stuff. They machine the housings to run multiple clutch sets, so the wear should be distributed accross them. Sort-of like running a 3-disc clutch instead of to 2-disc, a little more inertia, but less wear and more grip.
