Came like this - maybe older than the truck.
No controls.

Warn 8000 basically a bellview with a 8000lb sticker.

Same as what my jeep has. Controls are heavy truck PTO cables. Use a pushbutton starter switch and solenoid(s) for power... you know the electric side better than me.

Some of the Warn versions used a cable operated mechanical switch, no solenoid. The last version had the same brake set up as the 8274. I still have 3 of those style, two of the original Belleview 6000s and the third a later Warn version. I think the demise of that series was primarily due to manufacturing cost rather than any engineering deficiency. In a lot of ways, more robust than the 8274. The two downsides are no power out and 20 lbs more weight. Maybe the third is now parts availability but there is some aftermarket support.

I posted the installation manual/parts manual in the winches forum. https://www.earlycj5.com/index.php?threads/148383/
