    Unless the frame was treated, I think you are out of luck.

    Well I didn't have a tally counter going...but at a guesstimate 5 times. Mostly all on Trifecta. I think I only stalled once on Moab Rim.

    The alternative is slipping the clutch. Personally I'd rather stall and recover than replace my clutch. I've dropped my transmission once already and that was enough for me.

    well back to the E-brake stuff: Did you use your ebrake at all during climbs?
    I didnt, but I remember using it at Hollister a few times in my learning days. lol

    Because the faker I bought it from didn't take care of it like he should have and my clutches ended up going bad and some solenoids in the trans went out

    I wish I could have predicted it before I bought it though :pout:

    I used it a few times on different obstacles. Just depended on what was going on. Clutchless started a couple times too. My e-brake isn't the greatest either. Since I put the tundra axle in, the factory taco e-brake wasn't long enough to stretch the length of the new housing. So at the moment I only have a driver's side e-brake, which makes things "interesting"

    Wheeled it a little today. Loaded it up to go camping last night. Threw some kayaks on the roof and had a good time. The OME stuff is just awesome offroad. That's all I can say.

    With a little bending and grinding it should fit my '96 well enough.

    Swap out the belts and be "good as new".
