Someone had allowed the winch cable to rap around the drum until it hooked on the bumper and sheared the shear pin, Then they tried to release the winch by the handle on the passenger side of the winch, with a hammer. aua Needless to say the rod that the handle bolts to broke.So i need some parts and pto,pto shaft,handle and so on.

I have that shaft in the scrap metal trailer. Heck, I have the entire end housing.

Would it be possible to buy that housing or the shaft ?
Dang skippy you can. No way my work schedule will allow me to pack and ship before Thursday or even weigh it before then but if you want it, you got it. I'll retrieve it Thursday and send some pics. Remind me if you don't see it.

Almost a w/w truck

Just wanted to say hi to everyone , Thank a member (gijoe13) :lol: .Jeff (gave me a great deal, and excellent on shipping) sold me a dual output pto,pto lever, winch driveshaft, (one that i have not seen before) and cable guides

The only thing i'm missing now are the bumper extensions, cable and chain ( i think the winch has 60 ft on it) Winch lever data plate and pto lever lockout. I still need a shaft to fix the winch but half the battle is over.

Does anyone know how many different winch driveshafts they made.Maybe even some pictures

I hope to have some pics tomorrow. Thank you again Jeff , Tim.

That rod breaks real easy. I broke mine with my hand. Mephis has them if any one else needs one. And for the extension some were made of just welded steel. So making a set could be "right". One of my truck has that type of extension if you need pic's.

Today i disassembled part of the winch to see what was need to repair it, New seals are needed of course. I did find that the bearing that goes behind the input shaft is missing.

I need the part number for that bearing, or a source that has one.

I also found that the brake drum is cracked.

I thought i include pictures of my hacked up bumper extensions.
