I realize I am asking for a lot here but I would like to at least ask before I un-bed my winch from the deck. My main starboard winch is slipping in low gear which has rendered it unit useless to me forcing me to rely on the small cousin behind it.
I have had the drum off and have cleaned and greased it to the best of my ability but was unable to get to the low gear. There are several grade 5 bolts that appear to be mounting the spindle to the deck plate/gear carrier. I removed the bolts but could not break the spindle free. Is this pressed in? I didn't want to start banging on anything until i consulted with the gods. Note the main shaft did not come out either. Thanks in advance for your help with this. - Up winch creek
