Hey!

I just found and bought an old 3/4-ton International pickup. It has a Warn 8274-style winch on the front of it, and the winch has a sheet-metal old-school red/blue Jeep emblem on the top of it. Looks like it came that way, although I guess someone could have put it on there. Was this type of winch ever an option on a Jeep?

I'm going to use the winch regardless, but I was curious about it.

Thanks!
Richard
 
Yes, Warn winches were available as a daeler installed option with Jeep Badging.
I woulld love to find one.
 
Thanks for the info guys!

I got the IH truck home on Saturday. The winch has a tag like the one shown on eBay, but it's weathered - very hard to read. I can see the Jeep emblem on it, and the words "Jeep Specialty Equipement", and a serial number stamped in.

The winch needs to be cleaned and rebuilt - I'm sure one or more solenoids is bad, and parts need to be greased up, etc... Nice that there are several write-ups on the web for how to rebuild these 8274s. :)
