Will the winch fit physically and it just needs additional holes made?

The website says they will not fit. When I compare the sizes it should fit. When I complare the mounting hole spacing it should fit. But the website states....

Known exceptions: Warn 8275, Superwinch EP & EPi, any worm gear style winch (these are typically industrial winches such as the ramsey RE 12000 and look very different from normal winches)

It will not fit right off which is why the website states that it doesn't. To make it fit, mouting holes need to be drilled 5/8" to the passenger side to make room for the external brake (which hits the frame of the Jeep).

Thanks,

Nick
