Try www.bradenwinch.com for data about their current winches, both hydraulic and PTO.
The MU3 is the predecessor to the current AHSU3/AMSU3 winches. My AHSU3s have about an 11" drum diameter, 10" drum width, 16.5" overall width rail to rail (outside dimensions). Drum capacity is 325' of 7/16" cable but about 270' fits more comfortably. To install it on a M37 two sets of frame extensions are needed. I think it would fit nicely on a PW with the normal frame extension but with a one piece bumper, resting the front rail on the top of the bumper, after leveling out the bump (for the cranking handle hole) with heat and a sledgehammer. You can then (neatly) burn a hole for the cable and cover the hole with a roller fairlead. It looks very nice. That's what I used on my M37.
