Got it off and opened up to find…
After watching rebuilds on YouTube, and reading winch rebuild here on mud realized there was NO spring that came out of inside the initial brake spinny thing with the jagged perimeter. (Unlike the 8724 rebuild videos and kit comes with to replace - although mine is 8074 not 8724 so wasn’t sure if had spring or not. Warn says they are basically sister models so she said yes probably uses spring like 8724.
another quick one, if lube got into motor area - is motor likely shot? Or if I sit in sun and clean with electrical contact cleaner - I should be ableto get it fine or is it shot altogether. Looks clean but moist in many areas from lubricants
