I do not have experience with this product, but I went to their website and found some very good how-to vidios. I looked fairly simple. Good luck.

How much did it cost? And was it worth the money and effort?

I think i paid around $170 for it, took about an hour to do the install, made a noticeable difference, I'm happy with it.

Good deal. What was the difference? I don't mean to bug you about it, just don't know the difference between the factory clutch and an aftermarket one, and why an aftermarket one would be needed. Thanks!

Added low end power, lost a couple mile an hour off the top, but the majority of riding we do is forest trails, and mud holes, need the low end more than the high, also did wonders for back braking, letting off the throttle going into corners now is often more than sufficient without using brakes.

That sounds very good, especially the part about engine braking. I have heard that Rangers made in recent years have a clutch that will completely let go when you go downhill without revving the engine.

That was by far the most noticeable difference, very handy when running through tight trails with fallen trees etc.

Yeah, it sounds real nice. I will probably use mine most at a buddy's place in GA, and it's very hilly. I don't want to be riding the brake everywhere I go.
