Re: Spare Tire Winch

[ QUOTE ]
Had a flat tire this morning (big bolt in tread) so I had to let down the spare down, well the cable on the winch (lift)is all scewed up, Fraying.

So the question is what is a good replacement? is there an aftermarket? or should I purchase it from Ford?

While it's not for the faint of heart, after discovering how this thing is put together and operates <font color="red"> HERE</font> I think the thing is repairable/rebuildable and plan to do that the next time I have a problem. That link also has a couple of suggestions to prevent problems when using this winch.
