ram vds clutch problem? im running a ram vds clutch with a steel flywheel and a remote bleeder ,the clutch doesnt seem to be grabbing as good as it did,shud i try adjusting the bleeder more?
I went threw two ram 910vds and a 980 clutch. I feel ram is a **** clutch never lasting over 1,500mi in my car. I went to spec st3+ and have had a clutch that last at the track and the street. No issued with spec.

i tried using the shims it was worse,then took them out and it was ok,i prob put 2k miles on this clutch that was a new disc.
I have 540 n/a and a 200 shot. the spec has held my car.
Ran needs to go out of business and stop ripping people off. I had two 910's and rebuilds on them and a 980 and a rebuild on it. They are **** and never lasted. The spec st3+ has lasted. I'm only on my second and it's because the trans got a leak and got fluid on my first.

Ram clutches suck! I have one in my car right now and will never buy another. The first one that I originally bought failed after 500 miles so they sent me a new one. The new one was too thick and wouldn't disengage so I finally got them to send me another one which does disengage but drives like crap. I have had it in for 4,500 miles and it still vibrates a lot on engagement.
