Does anyone have one? What are the downsides to it? It's so freaking cheap, that it seems like a no-brainer to have one. If there are no real downsides, I'm definitely getting one ASAP.

Oh, and I assume it provides more low-end torque, since its purpose is to help turn larger tires....is that correct?

So it acts like a high-stall torque converter in a car? And if there are no downsides, I'm going to try to get one within the next couple of days.

I read that a Rubi with mud tires will get bogged down in really thick mud, and the wheels will even be unable to spin sometimes. I still don't know if I believe that they wouldn't spin at all, but I did find a super thick hole yesterday that my Rubicon would barely turn the tires over in when set to Drive, D2. That bothered me, so I went back through in 2nd gear (ESP) and low-range, and it had absolutely no problems that time, but I can't just ride around in low range all the time just in case I come up on another hole like that one. So will a clutch kit help fix this?

How hard is the install? Do I need a bunch of special tools or what?

EDIT: Also, will a clutch kit affect the warranty?

I think EPI makes them.

And here's why I want a clutch kit, I don't want my fourwheeler to do this (notice the bogging when I drop off into the hole; I had the gas pinned the whole time):
