[QUOTE="jeepmauler, post: 1355799, member: 16779"] It's pretty intuitive Todd. I did mine w/out any research and was no big deal. My winch is REALLY old and IIRC had stuff going on on BOTH ends of the drum so I sectioned mine in the middle as recomended NOT to do above. I made it work but have a lathe to get the halves square and also get a nice bevel to lay the bead in. If you can pop off one of the end plates and reweld.....do that for sure. I made my drum 4" wide and it holds 40 ft of rope. Make sure you get some sort of fairlead to guide the rope.......i never bothered and have broken chunks off both sides of my winch body from pulling from the sides.....also tears the rope up bad....duh [/QUOTE]
