Garwood Winch Specs

[emmado22]

Interesting how it lists 300Ft of cable......

 

[DanMartin]

Very cool!

I heard that 250' of rope will fit, but only if wound correctly on the spool....

Winch

Cable length is 200ft 1/2" wire = about 60 M

10000lb cd 5000 kilo.



Odd

I know it sounds impossible, but what if someone made a mistake? That's what those last pages in all the TMs are for, no? JT My garwood 10K winches on the front of my deuces won't fit 300 of cable. unless you use sideboards

 

[emmado22]

Thats the MIL SPEC for the winch, written long ago...... I dunno, I just posted it cause it was interesting.

 

[emmado22]

Here is the spec for the 5 ton trucks 20K winch....

 

[jatonka]

the 2 1/2 ton 10000 lb winch still can't hold 300 feet of 1/2" cable and work with it, plus your line pull would be more reduced. so, maybe they meant 200 feet of 1/2" cable which is what is published in many operator and maintenance manuals. back to the 101

 

[emmado22]

Like I said, I dunno.. Im just posting info I found online..

I have 250ft of 1/2 inch wire rope on my winch, it barely fits..

But 200 is what is called for in all the modern TM's.

What kind of oil do you service the gearbox with on the 20k winch?

The lube order is covered under the M939 Tech manuals as listed on this site. Lots of good information there.
You will have more questions, the manuals for these vehicles are all there.

While not addressing the drum capacity, TM 9-8617 "Winches, Power-Takeoffs, Power-Divider and Hydraulic Equipment - Gar Wood" is an extremely useful manual for all things winch on the G-742, G-744 and G-749 trucks.

I was wondering if anyone found parts for the Garwood G726 10000 lb winch? I just got one and need seals for the worm gear shaft and gaskets for the case. I found a TM on this site but cant seem to find the parts. Any help would be appreciated

Site rules request a state in your location.

Try any of the MV surplus parts vendors.
