    Out With The New (Winch)...

    I installed the military in cab heater-you should try that, thing puts out some serious heat! You can stick with the soft top and still be warm in the winter.

    Out With The New (Winch)...

    I've seen feedback from people that traded out their PTO for a Warn 8274 (the only electric winch they thought was worth trading for) and now they wish they had stuck with their old PTO. They say that thing was unbreakable.

    I don't currently have a fair lead. The one I posted is definitely what the original looks like, and I'm trying to avoid putting something on there that looks too modern. This is the one I just bought.

    Not only is the PTO more era correct (they never put an electric winch on a M38A1), but they are often stronger as well. It basically has as much power as your engine, which it runs off of. You can dangle the vehicle off a cliff, and pull it up to safety on the PTO.

    Out With The New (Winch)...

    I guess you just put a regular fairlead in front of the PTO winch? I have a 1952 M38A1 that I put a Ramsey 200L PTO winch on. With a little fabrication, it all fits (even behind my Saturn overdrive), but I don't have the military issue fairlead. I'm wondering if I'll have to fabricate it.
