GU series 2 question with 10,000pd winch

Looking to put a 6hp on a 10,000 pd warn low mount into a GU series 2 arb winch bar, but unsure if the extra length in the 6hp will hit??
Any help appreciated
The winch is currently out of the car so can't just measure
Cheers
Andrew

there is a thread here from Roldit
(I think) who managed to get a 10k on one, but was hacking involved.. my 10k doesnt fit no a TJM bar easily, sits offcenter in the roller fairlead hole which his did too..

the arb bars should fit up to the 12000pd winch with out mods but the nissan genuine one made by arb will only take the 9000pd warn without modification.

Here is my installation of an older 10k in my GU with the factory steel air-bag bar.

I haven't really dealt much with the ARB genuine jobbies but my understanding was they mount the winch higher in the bar, thus the motor clears the chassis rail but I would still check length of clearance in the bar. The motor in the picks (I'm told) is a 2.5hp and if I recall correctly when installing, the 6hp motor is a full 20mm longer than the motor in the pics.
