Wondering if any of you guys have worked on the 11k winch on your trucks? Specifically I am wondeing what I can do to free up the spool on mine. I had a good workout pulling out the cable .... all 308' of it! I have done my standard wander through the TM's and could not find anything related to maintenance of the actual winch. What I am hoping to learn is whether I can flush out the old lubricant via the four ports on the reel (see photo ... #1). Also wondered what goes in the access bolt hole on the drive unit (see photo #2)
Also related to this ... I found a great military publication in another thread detailing recovery guidance. To that end I would like to find a snatch block that can work for these units. Anyone have a source for such units?
