No waffle there mate, specs sound great, must have a thinner core spool too by the sounds of it!

Just an update on this build. I sent of the drum and lower housing and end plate to a guy near by who apparently is the guru for Warn winches, Leslie SG and Sons. He rebuilds winches and mods brand new High mounts for competition ready. After talking with this guy for about an hour and seeing some of his work, I cam to a conclusion that this guys knows his shit. He had winches everywhere that people send to him to rebuild.
So I took in my drum and lower housing and end plate for him to weld up the braces and install a bearing in the end plate.

I ended up with a fully modded drum. 3mm thicker side plates on the drum with machined edges so they don't slice into the rope, the drum is smaller now I can fit 40m on rope and there is a groove in the end of the drum with an o ring fitted to ensure extra protection against water ingress. Plus a drian port added to the housing.

All I need to do is add a fill port to the top housing and breather.

So after I drill and tap for the fill port, its just about time to put it back together.

Nice one Mark. What did the drum mods cost you. Did you ask Mal to drill and tap your brake shaft or did you buy a gigglepin one?

I have the GP brake shaft so no drilling and tapping required. It was $800 for all the work done. More than I anticipated but atleast its done, and properly.
