Old Warn Winch

[Bronczilla]

I think its a Warn 8274, I cannot find a S/N. Got it from an older fellow that said its been in his garage for 20 years and he had it for years before that. Anyone recognize it?

Not a bad find for $30

I don't think it's an 8274...Looks a lot like one of its predecessors, the 8267, or 8205, or 5687. The more rounded edge of the non-motor end hints me to that...Are there a couple open slots in that same end? also, most 8274's only had 2 mounting holes on the gear case, both of mine do...
:corn:

Yep, definitely a Belleview.

Nice, thanks guys! The next step is trying to find parts, will look good on my 78 Bronco.

Depending on what you need, I've got the one that came to my Cruiser bolted to my old trailer that I don't use. It doesn't look pretty, but it was mechanically OK inside last time I used it, so it would probably be good for spare parts.

I did a rebuild on mine. :redneckower in/out instead of power in only,
an Albright contactor(is able to literally run under waterr because it is a sealed unit), new bearings.etc....

Oh yeah, the serial number should be on top of the main casing.Some of them had stickers that get pretty Warn.:fawkdancesmiley: But should still have some type of marking.
cheers
