Gearmatic Winch

[PeteAllen]

Need some help.  A friend has a HG (not sure what year) with a Gearmatic winch.  He said he thought the model number is 8A but he wasn't sure when I talked to him last.  He is in need of a manual for this winch and would also like to know where he can get parts.  Any ideas on where one could get a manual or parts?

Do a search for Paccar .  They took over Gearmatic and Carco and make Braden winches.  There are lots of manuals that can be down loaded from their site.  If the one you what is not on the site, E-mail them as they are very helpful.

Thanks for the excellent lead Robert.  My buddy called them and they were very helpful.
