Yes, there is an inner mounting bracket. It actually attaches to the frame. Contact ODG & they should be able to hook you up with one.

UPDATE!!!!

Harbor Freight has the wireless remote, #3000 lb. winch on sale for $75.00!!

Winch mount

Hey - the winch plate kit has a bunch of parts and all the fasteners - there's a hoop that mounts to the frame around the front of the motor, a backing plate that attachs to this hoop with bolts on the inside of the body and then the winch mounting plate that is on the outside of the body. This outer plate also has the fairlead on it that you put the winch cable through. It might look like a difficult install but don't let the kit or your local Argo shop turn you off - it's easy!!!
