Default Gorilla winch

I just got one of these cheap winches on ebay. 2000# for $91.00 with shipping. I have seen several good reviews on them, but I dont expect it will be equal to say a Warn or Ramsey. Im probably only going to use it to raise deer for dressing them during hunting season, although it would be nice to have if I ever stick the King.
Does anyone else have one of these? It is supposed to come with a 'universal mount'. Will this mount work or will I have to fabricate/buy one?
Thanks for the help. This board is really coming in handy.

I got the winch today, and I must say so far Im impressed. Installation was a breeze. I did have to get a King Quad specific mount for it. The mount plate that it comes with is for the fairlead. Only way I had to test it out was to hook it to my sons Ramcharger and pull it up my inclined driveway. It did fine. Only gripe I have is that it only has 30' of cable, but I knew that when I bought it, and Ill be replacing it with synthetic anyway. Will give another review once it gets dirty!

Yeah thats the plan. actually all you need is about a four foot piece of 3/8 rebar. bend it into a w shape and weld a loop in the middle. bend some hooks at the tips of the w and your done.
