Starting to turn some bolts, so far it looks promising.

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.
