Title: Info on Bamford 1968 PTO Winch Sought
Post by: 69S2aFFR on November 27, 2022, 07:45:58 PM

Recently acquired Bamford PTO this in a job lot.
Seems there may be extra bits welded onto it - looking for info on what bits to remove.
Will then be looking to move it on (I have connecting shaft) - value?
Thanks guys ...

On the wheeler-dealer (TV program) the other day they fitted a winch to a series 3/2 land rover swb I didn't get the name of the winch in the RPS guide for ffr the instructions for fitting of the winch.

Here’s a copy of the Bamford winch manual 69,

This should show the whole kit for the winch.

It has had an extra plate welded to it, no idea why?

Cheers,

Mike.

Thanks guys - that previous info and pdfs most helpful, thanks Mike.
So that off centre plate with 5 holes in it does not belong?
Little square plates with 4 holes left and right are original?

I would say so Andrew.

The square plates with the 4 holes mount onto the chassis where the bumper is bolted on.

That other plate looks like someone’s effort to mount the winch to something else? Not standard I would say.
