Sounds to me like the cone brake inside the drum has seized.

You can download some parts diagrams from here http://www.warn.com/truck/winches/src/M8000.shtml (http://www.warn.com/truck/winches/src/M8000.shtml) They will have exploded diagrams that will help with disassembly and with parts ordering.
