mnkyboy Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I recently bought a rig with an old WARN winch, the PO burned it up and just looped the cable around it. I want to figure out what model it is so I can figure out if its worth fixing and so I can get parts. The tag is destroyed but here is some pics.

Comanche County Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Looks like a Belleview winch that was made from 1959-1973. http://www.ih8mud.com/tech/oldwarn.php This is one of the first electric winches that phased out the older PTO driven styles. Essentially, they put a starter motor on a set of gears to drive it. edit, I bet you can take the motor off and a good starter or alternator shop should be able to rebuild it. The rest of the winch shouldn't be too complicated to take apart and clean or repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnkyboy Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 so maybe a warn 5687 that would make it an 8000lb winch. I will have to see if I can fix it, I'm thinking its just the motor that died. The guy was using it and it just quit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
