Some of the hills going into Cheaha are stupid steep!! My Chevy 6.0 with 4.10's was turning 4000 rpms in first gear and losing speed. Ended up at 20mph by the time I got to the top. I was pulling about 8000lbs.
I think you are on the right track, replace with an after market clutch and stick with that Cummins.
Yeah I have a biking app that shows grades on segments and a couple of those climbs are a ridiculous 20%!
It's amazing every year to see the bicyclists participate in the Cheaha Challenge. They leave Jacksonville at 8:00 AM and ride to the top of Cheaha and back. I can't imagine riding up those hills.
If your trailer is small enough you can take the back way up through Munford. It has a lot more curves but no long pulls.
