Paddy_SP Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I'm in the middle of doing a deal for an ex-utilities PTO-driven Superwinch H14 from a 110 TD5. On removing the PTO from the transfer box, I saw loads of bronze swarf inside... I've not had a chance to look any further yet, but was wondering whether the experts on here would think it is most likely to have come from the PTO or the transfer box?
