I posted this question on MUD too, but haven't yet received a real response.
I got a deal on an OEM PTO winch for my 40 and I had read (on MUD) that it could be installed if using a Man-a-fre 6 into 1 header, which is what i have. Now that I have the winch on hand to look at parts and how it installs, I really see no way that the winch drive shaft can fit with the header in place. My header and exhaust run up above the skid plate right where the PTO drive and dive shaft should be.
Does anyone in the club have this set-up and could explain how the exhaust should be routed? I do not want to go back to a stock exhaust manifold and running the exhaust pipe below the skid plate seems like a bad idea. I'm willing to replace the exhaust after the header, but not the header itself unless there's no other way.
Thanks!
