Gearmatic 8G Winch
Have an 8G winch we are working on. Am in need of any manuals or information related to it. Also looking for a few parts: external brake assembly, clutch control lever, and a fairlead. I realize these parts are like finding a needle in a haystack, but if someone could at least provide close-up pictures, that could be very helpful for us if we find we have to make them instead.

The fairleads you will probably have to build

Some of the parts off of the latest gearmatic winches will work on the 8a or 8g. I have a list of parts, bearing numbers, places where I had work done and where I bought items to rebuild my 8a. Lavoy has some parts like brake springs, etc. It is a timely process to rebuild one!
