  1. That would make yours the 14th working day of January 1970 or 80 depending on if it has a plastic or metal socket.
  2. Since the M8274 has been around for nearly 40 years, there are quite a few of them out there, many still performing regular recovery duty. We get a fair amount of requests to identify how old a specific M8274 is. Here's a way to identify them up until about the early 1990s. On the top of the upper housing there will be a code with two letters and a number. For example, we'll use FB6. The first letter stands for the month the winch was made (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.). Therefore, with our example, F would equal the sixth month: June The second letter stands for the working day of the month, not including Saturdays or Sundays. Our example says "B," which would be the second working day of the month. The ending number represents the year the winch was made during the '70s or '80s. In this example, it's 6, so that'd be '76 or '86. (Remember, M8274 production started in '74 and this coding system stopped in the early 1990s, after that, Warn used serial numbers.) Beginning in about 1980, Warn switched from a metal socket on the control pack to a plastic socket. So, depending on which one your winch has would determine which year your M8274 was manufactured. Found it under warn serial no's
  3. Warn have an app on tinternet that tells you the age via serial no. Can't remember where I saw it but poss d44 or maybe just google warn? Someone else might remember where this app is located.
  4. Yes. I run a fully flowed head and complete rebuilt motor from ACR in my challenge truck. Why would you not if your head is scrap?
  5. That's a shame. I had just been talking to Peter Jackson about entering this. Clearly it's all his fault.
  6. Lordy Rob!!!!! That would never happen on here would it? I cannot ever imagine anyone having more than one login name!!!!
  7. Thanks mark. No real change as far as I'm concerned. I shall try for later, perhaps in Wales as old man Lewis is bound to come out to play. John Fair
  8. Info please Mark. Rear windows? Is that ref a rear rad ie no change? Mesh? Is that ref no front screen ie class1 no change? Mud flaps? The same as before just some didn't ? We now need spill kits ? Can't see them on Awdc shop but then I can't find owt! Anything else I should know for later in season? Thanks
  9. Sorry but im really not going to make this due to home work and a lack of prep time. Hope to go to a later one when i have a bit more time to sort things.
  10. I remember nothing. Sent boothy off up some impossible hill also. Some people will do anything you tell them.
  11. I'm only going if Boothy is going! I'm in talks with the man flu and the co driver in that order. Might come out and scare a few spiders.
  12. Brought this up before! I have an expensive 24 hr monitored tracking system with remote cut out from control centre. Discounts= none! When I said on here that I should be able to claim a finders fee for any other vehicles found because of the use of my system at my expense, some one on here thought that unreasonable. Well it's paid for by me and clearly not mr insurance so why should they benefit in recovered cost at my expense? Oh and yep NFU I had to prod them with a stick to reduce the new policy to the same as last year but they didn't really sound that bothered if I moved.
  13. i hope it gets bigger numbers for the next round. The place must have been like a ghost town as its a big space to fill.
  14. Just don't get suckered into the Swiss stupid road tax.
  15. I'm sure you are right but i suspect in this cash short pool we are all swimming in that someone somewhere has pushed some buttons as I have only ever had a problem on my last trip and never before. I also witnessed for the first time a man out with a measuring stick. Now that must say something as I would be surprised if it was off his own back, someone is pushing it!
