One of my sore subjects with my former hometown truck manufacturer is the lack of an end treatment for the winch cable other than a clevis. Well here is my solution, the tailchain hook assy from a M35 series truck. Red River Parts fixed me up, ask for the heavy chain, they have a 3/8 chain version which is too light for the job.

The heavy chain is for the 5t, the light one is for a deuce,
