warlok what are you having trouble with. I hav the same set up it is not the easiest job in the world. I think there is a set of bolts holes that are off set for specific winches. you need to use the riight combo. of holes to gt it to line up.

yeah that is correct. the first picture is showing how it was mounted before the braket the the second shows you how i mounted it with the braket. i recommend the bracket it makes life a little easier and it is only 10.00 i think. otherwise do it like the first pic.
