has anybody ever put a clutch kit in a rancher? (Like the one they sell at high lifter) I'm talking about the kind that delays the engagement to a higher rpm. I'm kinda wondering about how it would ride on trails after you put one in, as far as mileage, etc.

I wouldnt think i t would affect mileage at all, since all it does is delay the engagement, it doesnt make the engine run higher rpm all the time, just before it engages.
