The clutches are controlled by electric solenoid valves and if the voltage drops below 12.5 the valve will not open fully letting the clutch slip
and damage or burn up the clutchYes. With the stock battery, if you sped the day winching in the mud, you will have the clutch disengage and not be able to turn the wheels while winching.

This is invaluable info. Interested to know how may with dual bats dont have clutch issues vs those without? Since I love mods and hate mechanical failure F it Imma gonna do it.Honda dealer is saying that low voltage will cause clutch to slip and damage it. Like say you use your winch and drain battery down or have a lot of assories running at night.
Dont bother cause many have already done that. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to the failures. Not enough for concrete evidence anyways. That's the part that gets most people (including me)This is invaluable info. Interested to know how may with dual bats dont have clutch issues vs those without?

Mud machines with 32" tires have burnt up clutches. But so have showroom stockers with 30 miles on it.Dont bother cause many have already done that.

Did the showroomers have dual batteries?Mud machines with 32" tires have burnt up clutches. But so have showroom stockers with 30 miles on it.
Some probably did and some didn't. Point is that finding a concrete pattern is very hard to do.Did the showroomers have dual batteries?
She will get used to it.My wife is gonna kill me.... Buhahahaha
Go ahead and spend it. If that doesn't get your money, something else will lolWell I may hold off on the voltage upgrade then.
Yes and I was thinking some Ricochet Rock Sliders.Go ahead and spend it. If that doesn't get your money, something else will lol
And so your downhill plummet begins lol. I been eyeballing some sliders as well. But want to make my own. After all I've spent on metal toys, the wife won't let me buy anything already made lol.Yes and I was thinking some Ricochet Rock Sliders.
I have been married for 17 years and have run toys for a good bit of it so she is well educated on what is gonna happen. I had them on my last rig and was very satisfied.And so your downhill plummet begins lol. I been eyeballing some sliders as well. But want to make my own.
