Anyone notice the new clutch adaptors from Tekno!

150 degrees is normal.

Sorry to hear about your theft.

i ran both a 16t clutch and a 16t pinion. idk, i have heard that thicker center diff fluid can help to reduce the ballooning so i had my center diff fluid at about 30k. when i first saw the tires balloon with the clutch i thought to myself "i must have got it backwards and need to go with lighter fluid" but before i changed fluids i threw on the pinion and things were great. i dont get it. just thought you guys with more clutch experience might know. doesnt really matter though cuz ultimately i still prefer the direct drive but i must say the clutch was a big improvement over the previous design and ran smooth and quiet.
