Yes, I have a Sandvik/Norse 3081 but since i live on two places I must have two winches.
If i have time tomorrow i'm going to tear apart the winch drum and clutch, i'm going to take some pics and post.

That poor winch has certainly seen some abuse and neglect.

Yes, it has been left in the woods for 10 to 15 years after the axle broke off.
I am very happy over the fact that nothing is stuck og rusted solid.
Not a single bolt has broken and no heating or violence to take it apart.

Taking something that someone has given up on and bringing it back to life is fun for me....making the old new and useful again.
