May give you some idea of prices, not sure if this is an average priced motor or not though....

do you know what part of the motor is stuffed?.All the individual parts are available through the warn agents ,fully equipped, I have replaced an armiture in one for about $180 two years ago.If the armiture and field coils and brushes are all stuffed its probably beyond economical repair.I dealt with the waikato branch and found them excellent to deal with. May be worth pricing it up.

not sure what part is gone, sparky just said it wasnt worth rebuilding.
pick up another whole m6000 winch for parts, the motors are the same as the m8000 :) so i might be up and gonig in a few day. i hope.
