Winch from a gasser on a multifuel??

[BFR]

What will interchange and what will not? I have a complete winch setup (PTO, shaft, winch, bumper extensions, ....) and want to put it on a multifuel powered truck.

You can use everything but I'd change the gear oil. There will be a clearance issue between the gasser PTO shaft and the multifuel bellhousing but with a little grinding you can obtain the necessary clearance. If you switch to the Multifuel PTO shaft you will have to buy and install the 4 bolt yoke that attaches to the PTO output shaft.
Hope this helps!

Thanks Kenny,
next question...
Would you do this with the tranny in the truck or out?

It'd be easier to do it with the tranny in the truck.
1. drain tranny
2. remove plate
3. install pto
4. check clerance ( back lash )
5. install shift linkage and shaft
6. refill transmission

that's about it cut and dry. the clearance is ajusted by diffrent shims/ gaskets.
it's also been awhile since a I did a pto and don't quite remeber the clerance needed.
