The mounting plate bolts directly between the chassis rails, making for a very strong mounting point. The winch has to be mounted feet up, and the cable feeds out through a slot in front of the drum. I have a Warn 9000, as as mentioned above, there are only 2 Warn winches that will fit, and mine also has 2 off shims under the feet to bring it in to line.
The correct ARB bullbar is p/n: 3432050, which also has a cut out in the shape of a "W" to mount the control box.
There was one of the mounting plates laying in the ARB agents shop in Bangkok, I could check if it is still there, but freight on it would probably break the bank! If ARB was interested they could ship it with a load of other stuff from their factory in Thailand, but I doubt that they would bother.
There was a very good photo of the bar, complete with the mounting plate at the following, but it appears to have been taken down. If you ask them they may send it to you: ARB Bull Bars and Winch Bars -- EE -- Expedition Exchange Incorporated
My fairlead is also mounted with just 2 bolts. And as also mentioned the winch hangs very low and collects all the crud. I have it sealed up with Denso tape, and a fan fed vent hose attachment would also be a good idea.

Other winches will fit, just depends on the length
I had a 9500lb T-Max in mine, no problem
The large Warn winch is just too long to fit in the cradle

I am going to take that part number and that Devon web page into the arb shop around the corner from me ( the one that told me arb don't make winch cradles. ) this morning and see what they say.
Will enjoy that after he was so rude and sure that all arb bumpers take a winch without any extras.

as mentioned that is an early srs bar, to suit the MPS srs system. the later SPS srs system didn't require this fancy set up so all winch mount bars were then as per non srs except for a differently designed concertina looking mounting to replace the crush can idea. i would say a cradle will be difficult to get now, and if you have noticed the winch is mounted very low and the guard allows a huge build up of mud etc to accumulate around the winch. it also makes access to the underside at the front annoying.
