To go to 33's?
Okay...NO, you won't burn out your clutch unless you don't know how to drive...You will, however, have a DOG on the highway, and be super slow. That is all that lowering the final drive does. If a clutch on normal tires lasts 150k (hypothetically) then i'd imagine a clutch on 4.10's and 33's lasting to, say 140k.
33's are not THAT much harder to turn than the stock tires. A little, but not bad. If you can drive a clutch well already, it will take very little adjustment to the new tires, just a bit more gas is all.
Once the clutch is out, its out, there is no more slipping, unless you are running enormous power. The little 4 banger in these trucks deosn't have enough power to slip the clutch with big tires (talking like 44" or better), it'd just kill the engine.
Anyway, don't worry about your clutch, and don't swap a d44. It'd be a ton of headache for nothing.
