I googled it and it didnt come up with anything. I cant find anything on the Warn site also. Is the winch hydraulic? If so, then forget it. But 2 for $1000. Damm, one in front and one in back, Or sell one.

potentially PTO?
dont know much about winches just guessing at this point.

Yep those are hydraulic, and the cheap part too. I finally got around to getting my clutch pump. Almost 800 bucks, and I still have to fab mounts for on the serp. belt. Then you'll need hydraulic valves too!!! (another 300-400 bucks to do it right)

It looks like the Warn Industrial series is made in DC and hydraulic.
The number seems to be the rating in thousands of pounds. For some reason they skip from 9 to 12, sounds like the 10s were a short run orphan.


Hey Mudbuggy, where did you get your pump? Mine runs off the pto on my 205, but I have been wanting to put it on the engine.

There is a company out there that makes a kit. Bracket and all, but I lost them.

Give me a few minutes, just got the dreaded 7% battery warning, it's like the two minute warning in football, but on my laptop, it just goes dead. I'll let it charge a couple of minutes, then get you some links.

clutch pump info

https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=9-1738&catname=hydraulic - clutch pump itself

http://www.deweze.com/deweze/OEM/OEM.html - bolt on kit - open the link under the manufacturer of your powerplant, then scroll down to your engine size, call the sales phone number and give them the kit number, they'll give you a price.



P.S. don't tell them you work for the government, they'll only charge more!

Just talked to the guy, They are indeed hydraulic winches. He was telling me that the California Highway Patrol and the Sheriff and Bakersfield Police Dept. will not allow the tow truck operators use electric winches. They are to dangerous. He said hydo is much safer. Never knew that.
