Low mount winch in a high mount winch bar

[pro.020]

Hi guys,
This question has probably been asked a thousand times before, but can a low mount winch be bolted directly into a bar designed for a high mount?

99% absolutely mate. It's the other way round that can be a problem sometimes and needs a mod. You should have no trouble at all.

Sweet, I just picked up a FAT bar that's setup for a high mount, I was worried I was gonna have to modify the cradle to suit a low mount.

I can tell you that a high mount winch will not fit into a stock Nissan winch bar without making up an adapter plate to move the winch forward. As MudRunner says, the other way a round should be no problem.
