Default HF 1500 lb 120v winch for 4 post lift

I needed a way to pull a non running vehicle onto my Wildfire 4 post lift. I purchased a HF 1500 LB 120v winch. I bolted the winch my concrete floor behind the lift. I replaced the fairlead with a Champion champion ATV roller fairlead. The Champion fairlead bolt holes lined up perfectly but are larger than the mounting plate bolt holes. I used the HF bolts to mount the fairlead to the mounting plate. The only modification needed was to shorten the motor side mounting bolt by about 1/4 inch to allow the nut to be attached & tightened without the bolt hitting the motor housing. I mounted the mounting plate to my floor with 3 concrete anchors on each side. I also had to drill 3 clearance holes in the concrete for the winch mounting nuts/bolt in order for the mount to lay flat on the floor.

Seems like a pretty good setup. I hope it works well for you.

It pulled my Jimmy on to the lift. It is working as intended.
