If you're getting the gasser, get the 4.30s. 3.73 will do the job, but you and the truck will like the deeper gears.
OE clutches on the Rams are the same known weak point for over 10 years running and if you weren't aware already, are basically considered a mandatory replacement. Although you have been a little tough on it to roach it that quick. 2 grand will get you a clutch installed that you won't have to think about for a long long time, but don't go to the dealer. Get an aftermarket clutch. My preference is south bend.
Got to be a defect in it to already be going out I would think because I'm not rough on it. It actually doesn't slip, well it's not noticeable, but it sure does smell. The pedal gets spongy if I get into traffic too. I really think there has been something wrong with the clutch for a while, the truck has always seemed to be a dog on hills when towing. I've read that there is a sensor that starts pulling power when it senses clutch slippage, maybe that's been it's issue all along.
