Winch fo a 40c
I have been looking for a winch to fit my 40 4 roller crawler. I talked to a guy who has a winch off a 420 crawler. Before I drive 3 hours to look at it, does anyone know if it would fit on the 40 or would it need modification or a different mounting bracket?

Winch will fit, may not couple to PTO shaft.

Re: Winch fo a 40c
Thanks Lavoy. What is the difference? spline on the PTO?

Re: Winch fo a 40c
Length of the shaft in the transmission, 40 is shorter, so on a Gearmatic for example, you need a different driveshaft in the winch adapter.

Re: Winch fo a 40c
Talked to the guy on the phone and he went to look at the winch and says it is a "Braden Winch, Broken Arrow" but couldn't see a model #. He is not sure what model his John Deere was that he sold a few years ago after he restored it but says it was originally green and was a 2 cyl, so I think I am in th right ballpark. This is all new to me so will I need a pto shaft if there isn't one with it or does it attach directly into the back of my crawler? Maybe his crawler had the pto attachment but mine just has the two covers on the bank.

Re: Winch fo a 40c
Braden typically just mounts to the drawbar and other points and is chain driven off the PTO shaft, so my previous comments do not apply.

Re: Winch fo a 40c
So, I will need a pto shaft and whatever gear the chain goes on?

Re: Winch fo a 40c
That is my guess, yes.

Re: Winch fo a 40c
OK. I talked to the seller again. He has the two gears and the chain but I will need to find a power take off shaft and housing. From my parts book, it looks like this is unique to the crawler. Do you have one or are they hard to find?

Re: Winch fo a 40c
I do not have one, little hard to find. 420 PTO can be made to work.
