I picked up this winch with the Sixty winch today. I am now looking for the cast square type box that has the spline shaft that mounts to a Cat 30. In that cast square are a few gears and then one on the outside top right that meshes with the gear on the winch. If any one knows of one thanks

You don,t want to hear this, but I scrapped one last fall, too far away from you though, winch was rough but gearbox was nice

That sucks. I can never bring myself to scrap something. I find there is most of the times someone in need LOL. Never to far I have bought stuff from all over

Nether do I,But Sometimes you have no choice, property sold,and no place to store. getting old,too much to look after properly,things change ,people change nobody wants this stuff,Never would have never thought this would happen but The interest is just not there. Had a holt 2 ton in rough shape, had a couple of fellas pay for it & never came to pick it up, phoned them they both said scrap it which i did. Have a mint 1960,s12" Dewalt radial arm saw, with factory bench with drawers,bought new by my dad tried to give it away even deliver it no takers, Had a D4 Traxcavator engines rebuilt, needed track work thats all , tried to sell it cheap,then free, no deal went for scrap, Have a nice restored 5U D2 2s belt pulley, winch, set of Nos Rails, etc + complete D2,2A, winch that will be going for really cheap or scrap. Have a 75% restored complete Wide Cat 10 nobody around here wants, the shipping will kill you, Have a Dozen or so Cat D4 bottom nos roller ends with bushings tried to sell them here cheap no sale, it bothers me every time I look at my collection and I had tears in my eyes when I sent them to scrap, Sorry for the rant, but I just had to get it off my chest, I am so glad that My Dad & I sold our collection in 1 lot Thanks to Tom for that.

The common stuff just does not bring what it once did. I am glad I got to meet you, your dad and son. Many collectors now enjoy the great tractors that you and your dad saved and restored. Let's figure out a way to get your stuff shipped down here and saved, I can use the winch, rails and rollers on one of my direct elect D2 and I will find a home for your other stuff.

Sorry to hear that. Man I would think that given the time you could have saved most of that stuff. Really sorry to hear that the Traxcavator went to scrap. That's enough to make a grown man cry.
