Help me out here . . . Many moons ago I had a '63 F-250 with an electric worm drive winch. This thing had a drum that was around 2 ft wide, half inch cable and a motor that was easily twice the size of a starter motor. Oh, yeah, the thing was size large heavy. This I know 'cause my 'roids dropped to the floor when I tried to unmount it by myself.

My bud says that no such animal ever existed and I can't remember who made it to save my ass. Any ideas? Anyone ever seen anything like this?

my hickey worked the last time i used it and i had the motor rebuilt with virtually no run time after words but the to gear that the worm gear actually runs off of stripped in the center. It was the same size as the drum and aluminum. I was thinking of digging it out and getting it fixed and putting it on the trailer for loading up non op rigs!
