Waterproof is good. Marine grease.
Of course you'll learn how to swear better when you have to strip it down next time it is serviced, but it will preserve the winch.
Best way to get the marine grease off is to wear disposable gloves and scrape as much off with a bread and butter knife/paddle pop stick. Then wipe with rags. Then use your parts washer etc.
Strip it and it will become clear why its tight. probably got contaminated grease from water ingress. it has to come out and be opened up and sorted for sure.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

And don't over pack it with grease more isn't better as then the gear won't engage a swell ...As I have previously found out.
Looks like the water in coming in from under the handle .
Hi all im new to servicing a winch. I read the warn maintenance they put machine oil in some parts is it better to grease it all or the way they are saying with oil and grease.
I have a warn xd9000 winch.
