I have a 07.5 with a 6.7 6speed and I put a single disc south bend cluth in bout 15k ago. Put a programmer on the truck today and in the street setting it will smoke the cluth. I have put all the miles on this cluth so I know how it was used and it hasn't been slipped or beat. I would sure think it would hold better then it does. This was with OUT a trailer to by the way. Input?

I had huge issues with the South Bend in my 07 3500 with the G56 trans. I even went to their shop in South Bend and they told me it sounded normal, even after taking them for a drive. I eventually changed it out for another aftermarket clutch as I sure wouldn't go back to the dual-mass flywheel.


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

I have a single disc upgrade in my 1995 3500 4 x 4 and it works great. I pull over 20k with my turned up 5.9 and it never slips. Call Peter at south bend and see what he says.

Yes,call south bend for sure they have great customer service.

I have been guilty of this myself in the past but nobody calls the vendor anymore, just trashes it on the internet first.

Which model single disc did you put in it? What programmer are you running on it?

Not sure if they had an issue with the single disc also, but the dual style, my friend had a problem with pins falling out. They actually called him and informed him of the problem and sent him a new clutch for free.

Myself, I run a phoenix fritction, full ceramic single disc and I tow a lot, have 33" tires and an edge box set on 5 and 100hp injectors... never slipped. Can't beat em for under 400 bucks!

I got a Southbend single disc OFE 13" setup behind my 07 6.7 and it works great. Mine has EGR/CAT/DPF deleted running an H&S programmer on the 175 HP setting. Towing or normal driveing it has never given me an issue. As previously mentioned, call Peter and he will make it right.
