|
|
On e-bay there is Braden 8000lb Winch for sale that looks very close to the ramsey 50 for our M38's. I've never seen one of these winches and was wondering what it would have originaly been installed on and would it ever been used for military applications on M38 or M38A1?
Thanks

I am the one who had the Braden winch for sale on E Bay. This winch was mounted on the M38 Jeep when I purchased it. Winch is rated at 8,000 lb
it is 171/4 inches long and 8 inches wide it fits between the grill and bumper with room to spare. I don't know if the Military ever used this winch on the M38. It is still for sale if you are interested. |
