Thank you!!!

May I see a pic of the M8274 and bumper without the cover.

Three available, each are boxed ready to go. Make an offer, but keep in mind it’ll cost me almost $40 to ship in CONUS.

The same as it does in color

Very nice. May I know the manufacturer of and retailer from which you bought that outlet? Thanks.

That plus this: Interesting

The ARE looks good. I like it.

Black Rhino Overland

Today was disassemble the 8274 day. There are many threads and videos on the internet for rebuilding 8274’s, so I’ll spare the play by play. I generally followed this YouTube video for disassembly. The only thing I’ll add is that a torch to heat up and soften the old crusty sealant really...

This is incredibly helpful. You've confirmed my assumption of what you did with the RR mount. I agree with your assessment to keep the rear attachment, particularly for such a heavy winch. Opening the fairlead opening is something that hadn't occurred to me. I've got some weeks to go before...

Had a Rugged Ridge Arcus bumper and Black Rhino Overland wheels installed.

Lots of mods today, first the Rugged Ridge Arcus bumper installed at Outlaw Jeep (Scottsdale, AZ), then the Black Rhino Overlands at 4WP (Glendale, AZ). No more tire rub!! It may be in my head, but the vehicle seems to track better with the wider stance, though I might have preferred less...

Rugged Ridge Arcus bumper installed by Outlaw Jeep, Scottsdale, AZ: Before: After:

And, the fun begins. Clearly, the drum support lower (driver side), motor, solenoid, and cable had to go. Looks like I can recondition and sell the lower housing (passenger side).

When it’s all done, I will be about $1650 total into it, and it will have: - new upgraded 6hp 12v Warn 9.5XP Motor (68608), - new Warn splined pinion (98380/15879), - new Warn control pack (38845), - new lower housing and drum support (7594, 7532), - new ratchet wheel (7601), - new pawl assy...

Next step: restoring a recently acquired ‘76 Warn M8274 and mounting to a Rugged Ridge Arcus bumper. The bumper goes on this week, but I estimate a few months to complete The M8274 restore.....

I like your hood graphics. From which vendor did you purchase? Thanks

How far a 0 offset wheel of a given width sticks out will depend on whether you have a Rubicon (with its wider axles) or not.

Did you make a spacer to move the bumper out for clearance?

Funny, I really didn’t think that I could search and actually find someone who installed an 8274 on an Arcus bumper, and yet here you are. I’m going to do this....
