I noticed you had a Thor manual. Do you have Hickey or Thor casting on the side cases? I've come to think they(Hickey, Thor and Desert Dynamics) might have all been manufactured by Desert Dynamics.
On a side note, I had an argument with a buddy regarding the transfer being upside down and over/under rope wind; and that the worm does not distinguish forward from reverse. I wrote pierce... Here's their response.
"These winches can be wound either way."

I have the Hickey castings . Interesting that on the inside of a couple of the pieces there is a "VIKING 205" and "VIKING 206" cast (THOR reference maybe?) Yes cable on top or on the bottom, but on the bottom I think is best for our trucks, to work behind the bumper. I have the THOR and Desert Dynamics manuals and they are both the same winches. Do you know if you have any "VIKING" cast inside your covers?
