Easy :Two choices---

Dive for the missing part or buy a new Andersen Winch. No new parts are available in the US, rumor has it that ARCO in Australia (or New Zealand) is not reliable. Andersen and Lewmar have run programs called trade-ins or rebates where your old winch goes back to them. The winches, regardless of condition are crushed to get them off the market. The only other possibility is to try any used/consignment shops in your area and buy a used winch if you can find one.

Try ebay...

I saw few Lewmar winches there. One was only $99. Good luck.

Thanks

Thanks and I apreciate the humor and good advise. I tried Bareint's website in Australia and even located a supplier of used parts. Logistics make that alternative expensive and I'll still have an old winch. Looks like it is time to trade up Ro Ro
