This may be the one on the cover of a UK Offroad mag that i saw today. Want to find out about the rear mounted highmount winch, which isnt in the pic.

Did a backflip while competing in spain, if that helps???

Had a pic in the mag of a roller fairlead on the rear door, hooked up to the pulley to get rope to the front.

For any others interested;

Winch is mounted to plates that has been sandwiched on the floor and braced to the chassis. Rope then runs through a roller fairlead that is mounted to the plate, and the door has been trimmed to suit. A snatch block is mounted to the rear bar, and the cable then runs through a tube to the front fairlead.

Doesn't sound too hard, and helps with weight distribution.
