spicergear is on a distinguished road

I got away with that swap where most people won't...it sure ain't cause I'm special (at least not aside from the retarded way) but my installation of the shorter CAT V8 allowed me to move the radiator back by about 1 full thickness of itself which allowed the big 20K Garwood to have it's backstrap vitually against the front crossmember. Width's are close enough to be just a slight bother. I had to trim about 1/16" of material off the side of the winch so that it, and it's mouting plates would fit were I was wedging it. I only extended my frame by 7-5/8" where the normal extensions are much longer. They, however sit the winch near the top of the frame, not between it like I have done. My drive went from a stock deuce PTO, to a stock M715 front driveshaft w/slipyoke and 1310 U joints, to a custom shaft with 1310 yoke welded on, then supported by a large pillow block, then shot to a custom couple I welded together, then to the winch pinion. The thing works great and is fast!
