Default Any close up of the pulley.....

When I bought my cab 11 the rural mechanic had an A frame set up to convert the truck as a tow truck. He basically used the central mounted winch previously transplanted from another winch truck and using the rear fairleads ran the cable vertical to the A frame pulley.

What I have at the barn is the top 1/3 of that frame which I believe is an original army A frame...... from what I can see on the previous pictures the tubes seem to be composed of 3 sections held together with linch pins of some sort. What I have is the upper most 1/3 with the pulley and the tubes have the required holes for pins....

Pictures to follow over the weekend.......

....doubt if I will ever use it..... hate to see it rust away... if there is a taker for Barry's box.... I may have the pulley part...
