white90 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Alex take the freespool off and see if the gear is splined or has a key way if it is splined you won't need a new one. My first 8274 had a very old motor (round freespool knob)but still had a splined gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTF Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Alex when takin the freespool off after undoin the 4 bolts turn the plate so as the leaver is at the bottom this well help hold the small cog/gear onto the freespool leaver and not drop into the bottom of the winch housin just an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
