I basically can't tow a boat trailer with my gladiator as the clutch just smokes when I try to reverse. Been driving manuals for 27 years and towing boats just as long. I figured might as well take the Jeep recall source, my own clutch and have them reimburse route.

What are some recommendations for after market clutches well geared towing but still capable of the normal jeep off roaring?

Low range for reversing a trailer. Or steeper differential gears. The transmission gears are what they are. And yes, an aftermarket clutch.

I'm waiting for them to sort out the various issues some people are having. So far the stock clutch on my truck is fine.

Try low range for backing the trailer. It's probably all you need.

Awesome. I keep seeing ACT on the FB thread so that is definitely a vote of confidence from the masses.
