1) The diameter of the flat surface on the inside seems to be 13.5", which would be acceptable for a typical 5-ton hub. (You will have to confirm both dimensions since I don't have either one at hand, here.) 2) Re-drilling to 10-on-11.25" is possible but on four of the ten holes the chamfered...

Because we all kept waiting for your answer...:-) So yes, I'm curious.... WHY?

Yes, it works.... but as well as oil-in-water emulsions? Keep in mind, the specific heat of water/water based cutting fluids more than doubles the value for plain mineral oils - like your WMO. Also the boiling point of water is much lower, and for the same volume of fluid it takes more heat to...

For tapping and threading I use "STP Oil Treatment" in pure form, nothing else. For drilling, soluble oil type cutting fluid.

The mounts ARE the same for both versions, as Evil Dr. Porkchop already said. The only thing you prob. don't have are those two inner brackets.... I only had this one truck for a short time. Got the winch and PTO, rebuilt them both and then made the conversion. Cut the original bumper to create...

To 1): Drivers side is about 1-½" longer than pass. side. To 2): Yes, but for extra support, the winch bumper (halves) each take an additional bracket on their inner ends, which firmly attaches them to the stock winch frame. You might want to consider this when fabricating your mounting plate.

Congrats; nice rig; great job![thumbzup] So you needed one of these kits, then: https://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=12599993? All 60 kits (total of 4 lots, that day) were bought by the same GL-customer (#77000960). And a week later there were another 4 lots; 52 kits in...

Yes, you need one more inch, at least.

Matt, not to underestimate your contribution to this project, but there are just too many variables involved to get this to fit and work perfectly. What you listed are not just "minor" changes, IMO. The way this is going I foresee many more test-fits... Really, the manufacturer AKA "Bulldogger"...

Ah, I see now. Still... please (=> Forum Etiquette) Thank you!

And what has this to do with the original topic?:?

Not a problem. Good; that means you (or a machinist) can still modify them for the correct chamfer. Not a big deal - if you have the right tool. And to keep this simple, even a conical (non-spherical) seat at 55° taper would do.
