WTB LU4 Winch Cable Drum Retaining Ring

Looking for 2x Winch Cable Drum Retaining Rings. This is the set of rings that goes on the cable clutch side of the winch. Part number is 7412456.
If no one has them I can order from VPW, but would prefer to pay a fellow enthusiast.

Re: Winch Conversion

I like to take my truck off-road. Sometimes I need a winch, but I think restomods looks completely out of place on these trucks, especially considering mine is all original. Therefore, I found a winch, bumpers, and PTO (already connected to a transmission, lucky me) for a "good" price (var...

Re: Ben Hur Trailers

If there were any around, I don't see why not.
The Ben Hur trailers were a WW2 trailer. The M101 trailers were built with the M37 in mind.

Re: Winch Chain

I'm rebuilding an original winch right now. My cable and chain are intact, but I don't know what measurements you need.

Let me know what and how you want it measured and I'll get it done some night this week.

The winter is still young, Gary! I don't plan on having a romp in the snow here in Indiana until January or February.

Fitting bushings in LU4 winch

Finally got all my winch parts in and have started reassembly. The new bushings for the main shaft are just slightly too small and I need to increase the ID just slightly. I've tried using a brake hone and a flex hone, but they fill up with material too quickly and I can't seem to remove enough to g...

Re: M37 Winch to Bumper brackets

Unfortunately Midwest no longer has the winch to bumper brackets. Does anyone have some they want to sell?
