What kind of winch is this?

What kind of winch is this? Is part of it missing? Is it worth anything? Any info would be appreciated. I'm thinking of bidding on this.
Thanks,
Andy

does the knob control in/out
or is it a brake ?
me got no idea

 

That's a diesel winch. The engine is missing but the exhaust stacks are there.

 

owner won't be any help
doesn't know the year of his Jeep....

 

I just have no idea! I thought it might be something rare and I guess it is but rare isn't always good

 

ahhh, sprocket, not a knob
I think you're right
good eyes !

 

Mounted down-side up, maybe? Can't remember looking at a Ramsey Rhino from the ground up, but, sorta looks familiar otherwise.

 

Wouldn't judge too much by what ever they stuck on the end of the input shaft........

 

it's the special kind that flatties use to pull CJ5s out with !!!!!

Thats what I was thinking. Its gotta be worth 2 hundred or so. I was gonna go look at it but I have to work all weekend. I may go ahead and bid on it. what do you guys think?

 

Um Jim did the sun melt part of yer brain today? R)

 

Me thinks Jim been hitting the crack pipe. R)

 

My vote is on hand crank as well. I'll have to dig through my pics but I have seen one on a -2A before. I believe that bracket off to the left is where the crank would go, with a chain down to the sprocket you see there. I *think*.

 

I think it was a very early electric as there is a mounting pad on top of the worm drive that would fit an electric motor. The motor would have sit there with a chain drive reduction going to the worm drive.
