I have a full PTO winch set up from my 1973 FJ40. the manufacturer is Thomas Winch, Brisbane and its rated to 8000 lbs. it is complete with all components including a 4 speed gearbox and transfer case. i am in the process of fitting a h55 5 speed transmission and cant get the correct PTO gearbox for this set up so i have decided to go electric. i can email pictures but it was working fine prior to removal so no reason why it wont work again. nice period extra, i believe it will work with any 4 speed set up but i will include the 4 speed gearbox and transfer if you want it. would like to see around £1000.00 but would listen to offers, cheers Jon
 
if anyone is interested i would exchange this lot. would like to keep all the winch parts together (not split) but i need some camping gear perhaps some kind of oztent etc. let me know you have? anything considered, try me. also if you want to buy perhaps £1K too much, so would consider offers around £700.00. cheers jon
 
I see you are in Newark so it would need you to palletise the gear - I would pay shipping though.
Would you be able to send me some photos please?

Regards, Ian.

You might want to move your contact number to a PM or 'conversation' Jon to keep the pests away.

Well - that is one of my questions for when I phone you. Its for my 83 BJ40 - I presume it will fit ok?
Sorry for not phoning you yet. Bit of a critical time at work at the moment.

Hi Ian, been away all week myself, from my knowledge i am sure the PTO will fit onto your transfer, or you can change transfer boxes, they all fit together, i will take some pictures tomorrow and add them, cheers Jon

If Ian backs out, I am interested. I am in the states but willing to pay shipping if you palletize. I would mount to a '79 hj45. Please keep me posted. Tks
 
Hi Ian, here are the photos, talk with you soon, cheers Jon

Hi Ian, anytime is fine, look out for a small hole in the front cross member, thats where the pto shaft comes through, you may need to weld a bracket onto the chassis to take the bearing on this shaft, mine had one but it wasnt OEM, yours might, talk with you next week, cheers Jon
 
Hi Jon,
I just swapped my 4 speed gearbox for a H55f gearbox. I have an original PTO winch which I took off during the restoration process. After reading your above messages, it seems my PTO winch will no longer work with the 5 speed gearbox. I had no idea this swap would have an impact on the PTO. Is it difficult to get the PTO to work with the H55f. I won’t be doing the work myself but getting qualified mechanics to do it for me.
Thanks
