Eric,
The winch did not fail. The gear boxes did not fail. The splines on the output shaft and clutch were ground down. I saw the original clutch and shaft laying on the floor. Not sure if he had it bound to a tree when winching or not. The shop replaced the clutch with a "drag clutch" turned down to fit and a different output shaft.
