the clutches i would like it if the thing would hold a bit more hear up in NH i have to move it some times in the winter so i can get to the back of my shop but as soon as one tire hits the ice i am usually stuck it passes the wheel torque test just wondering if there are tighter clutches or some thing that i could put in it to give it a more positive lock

don't believe you can adjust anything to make the clutches work better. odes it have gm posi additive in it? if not or don't know change the oil and add some, gm only. you can replace te clutches and springs, which would help a lot if the originals are worn and weak.
