One day I’ll rebuild my winch. Unfortunately, it’s so far down the list I can’t see it…Picked up an 8274 winch on Saturday, then carved some pumpkins. Tore it down, sandblasted the cases, added oil fill and drain holes, then painted. I keep forgetting to take pics of stuff but here’s 1 in the back of the car right when buying it and the top case. Lower case and side support were painted bright aluminum but the paint was right over dirt and grease. It came with a new rebuild kit but missing the control and I ordered new brake support bearing as it was pretty gritty.
