I love the fact that the Husky has a drain plug. I have heard of people fitting a plug to a Warn 8274, but was wondering if this would be possible with other winches. Could you drill a hole, and weld on a nut?

Thanks,

I guess that was a dumb question. Maybe this will be too. Could I fit a grease nipple to the outside? I don't know how the old grease/muck would get out though.

Thanks,
