stock sammi just put in a new clutch bout a month ago, went out wheeling a few times with no problem, now when i'm in 4lo it shoots up to 4k and then grabs when i let off it drops to 2k and u can feel it grab, but when i'm in 2wheel i can dump the clutch at 5k and it grabs right away. do i just need to adjust it or do i need to pull it out and use some sand paper cause its glazed?

Sounds like something is binding. Did you get it reassembled correctly?

how are the bushings on the bell housing for the throwout bearing fork

Did you get the trowout bearing in correctly?

I'd say you need to tear it downagain and run through everything to make sure....

Oh, and make sure the clutch cable is not binding or frayed.
Clean it and lubricate it.

yes every thing is assembled correctly, it started doing it after a few wheeling trips

Thats odd.....whos clutch did you use?

Check the cable, unless its new, it may be damaged.

I am afraid that you will be tearing it down again though to inspect it.

i used the autozone clutch it has a lifetime on it, the cable moves freely

Did you get your flywheel re surfaced?
