thats useful information many thanks
The Carco Model G winch could be fitted to a number of makes of tractors. I do not have the Model G catalog for the D7, but I do have the Model G catalog for the A-C HD-10.
Interestingly, the HD-10 Model G line pull, with 101 PTO HP, is 39,000 lbs on a bare drum.
Also of interest, is that the main case is a one-piece casting, and was made from a patented, high strength, alloy steel that Pacific Car and Foundry called CARCOMETAL. The Carco winch also used heat-treated alloy steel gears, 4 stage gear reduction, and interchangeable standardised parts.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
