LandShark.....It depends on what your trying to do with your rig. Are you wanting it to burn (spin) the tires while the bumper is against your foot? If you answer to that question.....then yes....you'll need to tighten the slipper nut. However....remember....when you tighten it down all the way.....and you intend to drive it hard....doing huge jumps....and hard landings.....then you may do damage to other parts of the engine....etc. I leave my slipper clutch adjusted as the manual describes so I can enjoy the maximum use from all of the parts. Just my 2 1/2 cents.


Good Luck!
