If you are not looking for original I have some that will work.

 

[citizensoldier]

Hi sermis.. I would prefer original but what do you have? Is there a bigger style hook on it?
Tactical.. PM me if you find one..
What do they sell for nowadays? Its a hard item to price.. Yes its for the front winch.. lol
Oh.. Why we are at it. Anybody have a level wind or tentioner they would part with? Wrecker type on the front?

 

[sermis]

I will look at my stash tomorrow. I think they are about 5 - 6’ and have a heavy hook. I also have some heavy chains and snatch blocks. Will post PIC’s later.

Sounds like you might have a visitor after some tires coming down from Indiana.. PM some pics and list of what you have for sale.. Us northern boys might just fill his trailer for him.. Any 5 ton combat rims? Winch shafts? Tow bars? Wrecker/Bridge truck lights, 1200/20 tires.. what you got? huh huh...

Here are some pic's of what I have.
The one with the tape is 5' long 3/4"
The others are about 5/8"
Ones with the hoop are 16"'. I also have some without hoops.
Also have some leader 5/8" that are 6-7' long.

FWIW, the hook shown in the images above appears to be of the "locking" kind, it can lock on to the chain. The chain on my 5-ton truck is non-locking (images below).

Sermis pictured wrecker chains and not winch leads. Lane, I've got an extra winch lead.

Bump. Still in need of a 5T winch lead.

Is the 1/2" deuce chain and hook strong enough for the 5 ton winch? I need a lead chain and hook and have found one off a deuce. Thanks.

 

[BKubu]

I believe they are the same.

 

[rwoods]

Thanks. I had heard that before but I wanted to hear from someone dependable. And you are one of them. Thanks, again. Ron

I cant swear that they are all original but the chains on my m35 winches are quite a bit lighter than the chains on my 5 ton winches.

Bjorn had questions on the chain leads when he was working on his 8x8. He posted pics of a deuce and the 5ton leads, very different.

I couldn't find the one I was looking for, but this one has some good info.

As I said, I "believe(d)" I was right. I am not positive. I will say that I have a 5 ton with winch that has the same fair lead as a deuce. It could be incorrect. I am not sure. I thought they were the same based upon that.

 

[BKubu]

FYI...I will got out to check my winches tomorrow, but I believe, after seeing Bjorn's thread, that my trucks (both deuces and 5 tons) have the same fair lead. I am sure that they don't match what Bjorn pictured. Now, they (the ones on my trucks) could be wrong...or I could be.

I went out and looked at a 5 ton(M819) front winch chain and hook, right next to a 2.5 ton(M35A2 w/w) front winch chain and hook. They appear to be the same size.


Also the Tm's show the same part number for both 2.5 ton and 5 ton truck, front winch chains(12253104-4)

To complete the picture, here is a comparison of the 5 and 10 ton hooks (snatch block).
The 5/8 inch chain with grab hook and pear shaped ring along with the 10-ton snatch block are part of the BII for my 5-ton 8x8.
The 5-ton chain/hook can be used with the snatch block for a 10-ton pull.
