Warn winches were not offered by FoMoCo for F Series trucks. A Warn winch 'kit' was available at Ford Dealer parts counters, but only for 1966/77 Bronco's.
The winch on your truck was either dealer installed...using a kit supplied by Warn, or installed by a previous owner. I doubt the Bronco kit was used, because of how it was mounted.
Ford did offer factory installed Warn Hubs for 4WD's, which were also available as a kit at the parts counter.

bad with a 4 speed and dana 60 rear with a 78 front end and I did power steering after I had a accident with a honda car stopping in front of me.On sale day, 360 engines magically become 390's.
The engine code is the 4th digit of the VIN:
1968/72 F100/250 4WD: A = 240 I-6 (standard equipment) / B = 300 I-6 (optional) / Y = 360 2V (optional).

I hear ya on the disc brake front-end upgrade, 4 wheel drums don't leave much room for error when you need to stop on a dime.
