The best clutch for 3rd gen 4runner 3.4?

I noticed that there was another thread regarding clutches, but i feel i might be off topic a little in the other thread with my question:

What, in your opinion is the best clutch for this engine in a 4runner? i do quite a bit of offroading and i want the best bang for your buck...
i heard marlin HD clutches?

I went with an advanced auto stock replacement one, while I had to put in another motor. all I could afford at the time, my old one was stock with 240,xxx miles on the original clutch! So i'm interested to see what everyone else says.

considering I have 160k on my original clutch, and I run 33"s with 4.10 gears (and I offroad a few times a week), I'd get an OEM clutch... that thing is obviously tough as nails

I just put in a marlin crawler clutch kit in mine and it has been really great. Many of their components are from the same manufactures that toyota uses, but their kit is designed to hold 300lbs more that the stock. And its less expensive than going to toyota too. the people were very helpful as well.

I have one truck with a ceramic HD cluthc and one with a stock clutch and the ceramic clutch is a chore to use in daily traffic, especially with bad knees. OEM standard clutches work just fine for on or offroad for my use.
