Thanks guys, yes I want opinions and what others have tried.

I replaced my clutch at 15,000 miles due to rough engaugement issue under warranty. The clutch has been great until this last trip. 108,000 miles on the truck now.
The clutch is still great unless you have the RV and hit a big hill. Then it lets go.

The chip and water injection combo was too much for it I feel. I looked under the turbo and the drain hole that leads behind the flywheel is dry. Unless it's the rear main I don't think it's a leakage issue.

I don't need a 1000 dollar clutch, just more than stock. I've used LUK upgrades on some older powerstrokes, they worked great.

What I don't want is a grabby truck jerking agressive clutch. My clutch now has a great friction point. I can feather it easy and smooth, I want that just with more grip.

I don't need or want an easier pedal, I'd like a harder one. I know I can remove that assist spring.

Keep it coming guys, more info is always better.
