I understand what you were talking about, Im just saying that it would still work. There is an interupter inside that box from the side of the tranny, so, just flip a switch, and the driveshaft to the winch will disconnect, and only the driveshaft to the transfercase will turn.

It is a stupid, and unrealible design, but it still works.

One other quick note. The large cylindrical object 21st connected the drive shaft to the PTO with, is actually the piece that is supposed to represent the starter motor. It should be up under the drivers hood on the side of the engine block just ahead of the firewall. It a nice detailed piece that ended up in the wrong place on the model. It has the the foot activated lever linkage fairly well depicted.

Our Chineese manufacturers must have screwed up on the plans and added the piece to where it fit best since they didnt know what it was...

I managed to remove the headache rack and gun mount so that I could loosen the drivers seat and slide it back about 4 or 5 scale inches. I reinstalled the bed front in reverse as it is the gun mount that requires the seats to be too far forward in the first place. The seats are glued in pretty well and they have two prongs on the bottom that you have to shave off to reposition the seat. I pried at them till they popped off.
