the pto drive will fit
the winch head is the same the cradle is wider

driveshaft will be too long but easy to shorten the front section and redrill a new hole for the sheer pin

all this is assuming that its the thomas winch not the genuine toyota


i have a spare 40 series winch head cradle sitting here that i may part with for the right $$
