Not a military winch, the data plate shows 50-?, but what gives it away is the 8000 lb capacity. The military ones were only 3000 / (can’t remember) or 5000. Never were 8000 lb.
The 50r was the military one, and I believe it was 5,000b if I remember right. I had one of these a few years ago, sold it to a guy in california. I wish I had ten more!
I have 2, r-50 winches. One of witch is on the original military jeep. Data plate M38A1 W/WN.
From what i can see hear, this is by all accounts an original military winch.
I will ask the Dutch Iff the need a KIDNEY !!
