I would say yes you do. It cuts down on belt slippage and gets your low end back. I just ordered mine from QSC. Don't have it yet but waiting on it.

Not sure if it voids the warranty, but I'd bet yes it would. Really they aren't that difficult to do yourself. I'd do it myself before paying the dealer.

I would contact the clutch manufacturers that you are interested in. They will help you with your decision as to if you will need a kit and recommend a kit for your needs and riding style.

You do not necessarily need one. I would recommend that you get one, but as long as you use low gear when pushing/pulling or when going through mud, you will be fine. I have run 29.5's on all my machines without a clutch kit.
