Stock.
HD is too hard on the pedal, and on/off is more like a button clutch..Not what you want off road.
If your burning clutches, What gearing do you have, on what tyres?

Exedy is the most common HD clutch used if you know the right people you can get them for around $190
After doing some reaserch I found Extreem clutch's to be better made and have a stronger clamping force, They are a little unknown in the 4x4 world they are mainly into race/drag/drift but they make clutches so suit Suzuki. They are about $10 to $20 more but they are Australian made and when you put them side by side you can really see the differance.
My local dealer is Hi-Octane call and ask to speek to Kyle 02 9638-4643 Tell him David his Snap-On guy sent you.
Just a little word of warning with HD clutch's keep a spare clutch cable with you. Its best to replace it with a new one and keep your old one as back up.

Also very true.... In mine I have always run stock but I have gearing. But if you want HD go for it.

Mine went with a stock clutch.. so i bought a new one. Cable popped out where the bend is near the radiator..Its weird driving home with no clutch, lucky we were only mudding on flat ground..

The clutch cable issue is super common. If you are replacing a clutch it is worth changing the cable at the same time.
