Does anybody have any pics of the complete winch set up for the 5-ton truck? I am installing mine as we speak and some pictures would be most helpful. Would really appreciate it if anyone out there has some pics that can share with me.

Do you have the TM's fired up to view ?? they show a lot, though understand how pictures at times help better than drawings.

edit....
Stupid me...... of course you have the TM's fired up. Good luck on the install. Hope someone can put up some pics

Feel free to shoot questions this way- I converted my M923A2 to an M925A2 (hydraulics and winch) last spring. Not hard at all, just heavy holding the hydraulic tank above your head while someone slides frame bolts in!

I do have the TM's CoachGeo. Pictures are worth a 1000 words though :)

I wold say installing the winch is the easy part, all the other stuff supporting it is the difficult part. Shimming the PTO, supporting the cab to replace the right side mount etc...
