Joe Your 16's are a LOT simpler than the geared 21's in the referenced article.
1)? Loosen completely (but do not remove) socket head screw (3/16?) in handle hole.? 2)? Lift entire drum straight up off winch, careful that you do not pull the bearing cages and center pawls off the core.? 3)? Put the drum safely aside and do not turn it over until you have something to catch the bits.? The assembly will come apart intuitively when you are ready. 4)? Watch for the fiber washer either sitting on the core or stuck in the top of the drum. (The box with hole mentioned elsewhere is a good idea) 5)? You should now have access to the screw/bolt heads.? You will need a second hand (or vise grip clamp) below.? You can strip the bearing carriers and pawls off, but parts may fly, so be careful.? They will stay in place while you dismount the winch. If you have nothing better to do with 'em (they make fine cabintop winches for halyards), drop me a line, I'm trying to convince the boys that secondaries would be good for handling the 'chute.

Does anyone know how to disassemble the standard winch to remove it?? Thanks for your help. ?
