Has anyone repaired a Carco SG winch? I recently rebuilt one and when I got it back together the lever rubs on the side of the opening. I have taken it apart and put it back together twice now. I have no instructions, so it is like finding your way through a dark cave lighting fire crackers :( Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Is it possible you're missing some shims or spacers?
Thanks hotratz.
Unfortunately I have no way of knowing. I am thinking it is off by about a quarter inch. I have never seen a picture or diagram of where the handle should lie in the slot. The only shim is on the cover on the other side. However it is only about a 16th inch. I think I screwed up when I put it together or adjusted it. I will say there is not a lot to adjust :(

Just an idea that I am sure you have covered, but have you tired installing the handle assembly around the other way? Turning it 180 degrees?
Might just be the pic but the handle shaft looks offset a wee bit on its base.
