Hi List,
    I learned a usefull tip from Kevin Strain today concerning winches.
For some reason the military speced gear oil for the winches, and along
with the gear oil comes
drips of gear oil as one would expect.
    The trick is to put a grease fittin on the winch and fill it full
of grease.
No more leaks and performance is the same.
