Warn winch question

Anybody have an idea on the era this came from? I just bought this rig today and I am trying to ID so I can list it to sell. Could it be from the 70's?

Is currently on a 72 that does not run.

Any help?

Re: Warn winch question

It's a M8274, and yours shown here was produced in Oct. 1975. Also, M8274 stands for: M is "model," 8 is for its 8,000 lb. capacity, 2 is for "two-way" (freespool and power-in), and 74 is the year it was introduced.

Btw, are those extreme bend tow hooks on the front of your truck there?

Re: Warn winch question

Yes they are! They adjusted the frame for the bumper and this was a huge bonus when I went to see the truck. I bought it for the driveline and motor. It is date coded for my k20 Cheyenne super project. The tow hooks are a bonus!

Thanks for all the help! Hopefully I can get it off this weekend
