Nobody is suggesting that you "ride" the clutch, just try not to dump a heavy shock load on the driveline, & "use" the clutch instead of abusing it. A firm takeoff rather than trying to wheelstand it will pay dividends.

I suggest that if you need that, then you will also need everything after it stronger also. Plus you might want to invest in a box of ear plugs, if its a daily driver you will soon get sick of the squeal of the clutch.

One thing that is important noise wise is having a sprung centre to remove torsional vibration from the shaft and to ease shock loads on the clutch plate.

Clutch plates are available with upgraded spring centres and are much nicer than listening to drive line noises that sound like your gearbox or diff is breaking up.

by locking the diff you are creating a weak point!!!!!!!
If you kept an open diff...excess horspower would turn into smoke. With a locked diff u have more traction....So try and imagine what is happening inside the diff housing...
