Thanks Dave, and thanks to Todd S as well. I already have it torn completely apart. All the exterior parts have been cleaned and are ready to be sandblasted, then painted. All seals and gaskets are being replaced as well. I already have the new worm shaft and will replace it this week. Like yours, oil seeped into the brake lining so I've got a new one to put in. I am looking for brass bushings now, at least one for the gear housing. It should end up in like new condition.

My drum shaft is in good shape but is loaded with old grease. When I dismantled the drum from the shaft there was some minor water in it but caused no problem with the shaft. So what I was trying to figure out was if I should load up the drum hollow with grease through the zerk fitting to avoid water build up once I have it back assembled. That would be alot of grease. And if so, did anyone have some moly grease they recommended.

This winch will continue to operate as this truck will be put back to work.
