Question:
SHELBY 5408 WINCH Small gear wheel broker tooth.. Replace the gear or the whole winch?
asked by: Dave H
Expert Reply:
If the gear is broken on your existing Shelby winch, I recommend simply replacing the entire unit, as Shelby is no longer in business and replacement parts are not readily available.
To replace your Shelby 5408 model, I recommend the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch with TUFFPLATE Finish # DL14725. This is very similar to your winch that features a 2,000 pound capacity and 2 speeds for horizontal pulling applications. The zinc TUFFPLATE finish will also do a great job of preventing rust and corrosion.
I have attached a video demonstration on this winch so you can see exactly how it looks and operates.
