Well I will post this just in case someone searches it. The kit comes with one large shim that goes in the compensator to pretty well eliminate that and then you add a large shim inside the clutch pack so it can't slip as easy. Pretty straight forward job. And the instructions from quad shop customs are good.

Sent from my S5 while I am slacking at work.

On the arctic cat 1000's we have an SLD in the nose come of our differential, all I did was take the clutch pack and grind 3 groves equal spaces apart and then tig welded the grooves at like 200amp then filed the weld until I could slip it back into the drum. I don't know how your SLD is set up but if your shims ever stop working that's another option.
