Without knowing exact measurements/dimensions of your available space...

rule is to ensure winch is bolted to chasis (a winch bar is designed to extend the chasis to give the required support). Winch cradles are available commercially or you could construct one yourself (if you can weld, etc).

The bar can be cut and drilled to support the rollers but nothing else.
