Ironyetty,

Looks like you have a bunch of work ahead of you, especially doing the work out in the big barn. Do you know the make of the winch that you removed? Keep the pictures coming.

The winch is a gearmatic but I'm not sure what model I never looked for numbers on it. I think it is froze up so I haven't messed with it but once everything else is put back together I'm going to rebuild it as well. The property I will be using it on, I will probably need it to get me out of a few jams!

The winch is an 8G, the brake lever is removed from the winch, but I can see the shift lever.

What is the rating on the gearmatic 8G winch?

Thanks

I would have to find my book to be sure, but about 9,250lbs pull, first wrap, full throttle. That is about what the book says, in my experience, it will drag a 5 roller 420 with a 62 blade across the yard with the engine idling and about 6 wraps of cable on it with the blade down, and the tracks locked. I don't think Gearmatic's rating system is quite the same as these new electric winches, because my 10,000lb electric will barely pull a rolling 420 up the ramps some times.
