No, it should never slip. If you are getting it to slip either it's worn, not adjusted, or your hands are a lot tougher than mine. I try to make my slip to the point where it feels like my hands are going to bleed holding on to the spur. Regardless though, your clutch should ALWAYS slip before your diff.
