I assume that Richard's photos show a winch equipped C60 which seems to have a bigger gap between the rear chassis cross member and the fairlead than a FAT. The top photo in Dave's post #16 shows the vertical legs of the heavy piece of plate that goes under the pulleys, bolted to the face of the rear chassis cross member. On the C60 the vertical legs are welded to the horizontal plate directly above the pulleys but also to something higher up - maybe another horizontal plate above the chassis rails ? There is then a gap of about 5" to the front of the rear cross member, leaving room for the brackets for the rollers to be extended upwards at about 45 degrees to reinforce the vertical plate.
