Test fitted the Hellfires to a standard Warn 8274 on the weekend, and yes they do fit.
However the fit over the Warn gear in the top housing is a little loose, it has about .5mm play between the original top housing gear and the Hellfire adaptor.
I then tried it out on the GP +25% gearset, that are made to fit the standard Warn gearbox top and it is a perfect fit, no play between the top gear and the adaptor at all.
So if you are thinking about fitting a set of Hellfire ratios, my recommendation would be to fit the GP+25% ratios to the top housing at the same time :twisted: , (as you have to press the shaft out of the top housing anyway). It would make for a very quick single or in-line motor winch(flamin fab style).
