I think you should invest in one of those PTO winches seeing as you broke the high mount lol.

Yeah I will see how it welds up. I think it was the lack of back bracing of the housing at that point. If you look at the front bracing going to the point of mounting you can see its all about the front.
Brett will sort out some better bracing in there and it should repair up fine.

hahaha, yeh I was very surprised of the amount that was in mine when I rebuild the gearbox, mud is evil and as much as I loved playing in it my bank account isn't big enough to keep repairing things

Yep I used to think mud was awesome..... deep down I still do but nothing better than climbing a steep as rocky hill!
I'd prefer to do an extreme technical drive over a winch exercise every day!
