get a snow blower man, dont use your baby for plowing. Plowing is so hard on a vehicles, especially since you will be playing off road and "beating" on your rubi. Double the wear and tear.  |

who needs to do a u-turn in a driveway? lol
i plow w/a superduty, but i don't do driveways.
when i first started plowing i had a 1968 cj5 and it would spin out if the depth of snow was over 8" i hated it, but it wasn't locked frt & rr maybe that would have helped.
i know a lot of people who plow in Boston w/ jeeps. they make a lot of money.

well.....
about your clutch, wait for it to fail, then replace it with a factort unit. no need to spend the money on a centerforce clutch or something in that relm of clutch land.
Rubi's have ceramic clutches right?
First your jeep will not produce nearly enought power to break the clutch.
second, you won't be able to feather the clutch as nice when plowing.
If your in a tight driveway, put it into 4lo, make it a bit easier to plow, dump clutch and go! other than that 4hi would be fine, but you might want ot re-wire you lockers to work with 4hi.

I have seen them as cheap as $80 with alignment kit etc... But that was on ebay. locally.. I would say in the low hundred dollar area (ex $130) But depends what you get and where you get it.
