The rollers you picture Tony are the late pattern Canadian type.

On Canadian winch roller assemblies, the lower horizontal roller on the front bumper is held in place with a side plate that is in turn held in place by a spring loaded pin. Pulling this pin out will allow the side plate to be rotated off the upper roller, and the side plate and lower roller removed.
On Australian pattern winch rollers, only the upper roller is visible to the front, and the shaft for this roller is retained by two bolts and a lock plate. Undoing these will allow the roller to be removed.
Once the one of the rollers have been removed, this then allows room to pass the eyelet through. The wire cable runs along the inside of the chassis rail through a series of "Pigtail" brackets where you simply loop the cable through.
Depending on the type of swage that has been applied to the cable end over the years, it might also be possible to simply turn the eyelet horizontally through the rollers!
