Default wrecked another belt, time for clutch kit??

I have a 2004 700EFI that is used as farm workhorse 90% of the time. It does a lot of slow speed stop and go and a lot of hauling and pulling. I pull 2000lbs behind it regularly hauling feed and occasionally pull more behind it. It has 28 inch ITP 589 on it most of the time too. I use low when needed but still have broke 2 belts. I was thinking about a heel clicker kit but am not sure what all I need with bigger tires and all. What springs and weights would you start with?? I am not worried about top end speed as I rarely ever go above 40-45 miles an hour. What is a good setup to make a better workhorse out if it??

With the 28s you need to use low when you pull the loads you do but the heel clicker will help I have it in my 2002 700 I run the stock spring with the 1.3 4.3 4.3 for the weights and it work great but I have the stock 25 tires on it I did get the white sping from cob and just put it in and that may be better but have not had enough time on it yet . I do like the lower engaugment of the stock blue spring

Yeah it is always in low when pulling something and I always try to give it a lot of throttle right away so the belt is not slipping and then let off throttle some after load is moving but still wrecks the belts. First one lasted about 2000 miles but the next one only lasted about 300 miles.

I have the epi bigfoot kit in mine and I love it. Works considerably well and really does "put the power to the ground"
