i have a ramsey 8000 winch but doesnt work. i have taken it appart and gone through it all but the elecrtic motor was all rusted up and in not too great of condition. i cleaned it all and put it back together, but it only had enough power to bearly get the cable back in. does anybody know how or know anyone that is good a rebuilding electric motors? i need to get this done while my jeep is down for a bit..

You can just take the motor to an electric motor place and have it worked over or replaced, too. I'd think Henstrom's would do a good job, or maybe Diamond Electric....

More than likely your motor is BER beyond economical repair. There are tons of fly by night motor repair shops in town as well as some good ones as well but based on the size of the motor its most likely more costly to repair than replace. I do this stuff all day long but usually on a larger scale I don't even bother sending little motor like this out even for tear down and inspection. Start calling around for a new one and if you have problems finding a replacement let me know and I can point you in the right direction.;) There are a few shops that come to mind that may be able to fix it but its a crap shoot:confused:

Henstrom's is on 3300 S just West of State somewhere, Diamond is on 300 W close to 1800 S.

Henstroms is actually east of state around 3-500 east on the north side of the street, they should be able to handle that no probelm they have done every starter or Alternator I ever neeeded, or parts

yeah... i have been through it i dont know how many times... but stuff happens i guess. just glad nobody was hurt. the jeep is facing the way we came down. it completely rolled over. quite the fun ride! good excuse to build a full cage, tube fenders, etc.
