They come apart into 50 or so pieces and there is only one "right" way to put them back together.
The good news is that when I'm stuck during the reassembly I can cheat and peek under the drum of the other winch.
I'm happy to report that there were not extra parts left over and both winches are spinning freely with fresh oil and grease.
