Yes right! Sorry about my bad english.
There's a TM about the winch maintenance, but nothing about the motor. Seems it's not serviceable, but I can't immagine that a hydr. motor is not serviceable.
What I don't understand is why leaks when winch is not in use, and under load it's almost the...
it's not the valve on the hydraulic motor. It's a small valve with a spring inside, quite easy to grab with 2 fingers and pull out the pin. it sits on top of the winch friction enclosure, near the winch drum, not on the hydr. motor.

I did not follow it because of the poor feedback here. Sorry about it.... Maybe in the future will be a air / electric engaged locker for our axles... Should be great!

Thanks!

2 weeks ago:
I went not from right down, but fron left side. Due the detroit locker the truck went straight, by pressing the brake rear axle lost traction on ice and the adventure began...
Tried to winch me away from the fence, but at the same time front axle went to right over the wall.
