Dump with winch diagram or photos

[lsansone]

I am looking to add a winch to my m817. can anyone point me in the right direction to look at a diagram on how they are set up? I looked over the TMs and cant seem to find a diagram. Does it use the same pto at the dump or is there a seperate one? anyone have a set up for sale ?

thanks

I just put one on my 817,it uses the pto that is already on the truck.

so i take it that there is another set of levers that engage and disengage the PTO.

Yes,there is a lever behind the drivers seat near the cab corner ,it raises and lowers the bed.

Humm, I'd like to put a dump on mine. Does anybody make a kit?

Yup, set of levers to the left of the drivers seat for the dump body, and another PTO control next to the transfer case for the winch control.
Thats how ours is set up anyhow
That is a BIG winch

I could get your some basic photos tomorrow if you cannot get any before then

Lou, apologizes- it took me almost a month to get the pictures up! Well...here they are. This is our M817 W/w, I took a couple of how the bumper mounts, where the drive shaft goes, and one of the PTO on the side of the tranny...hope these help at least a little bit...

Biggie to replicate the set up used on the m817ww is to get the double ended pto and the related linkage. Dump trucks are offered for sale on e bay and elsewhere with the note "complete except for pto." if you don't get the pto junk the truck as they seem to be very difficult to acquire especially on the cheap. Bothe accessories are driven off the transmission not one on trans and one on transfer case such as wreckers or fuel trucks.

thanks all
my dump has the pto. it seems that not only do you need that. but you have to also add the extra linkage to control the pto when you are winching. thanks for the photos.
