Sure. Let us know what works since no one else has solved the problem...

that honestly doesn't make much sense.

drag radials can be hard on the rear, and a harder clutch can be harder on the rear. the only thing that would be easier on the rear is a clutch disk that would slip much much more and not put as much force/shock on the diff.

That's my theory. Whether it's a good idea, I'll have to let others decide.
