semi-hidden winch mount

I am mounting as semi-hidden winch kit on my 2003 F-150 Supercrew 4x4 and the mounting is off center. Not centered under the bumper. I that normal or not.

Why is it off center? Is the winch centered on the tray? Did you put a winch that isn't "recommended" by Warn? I know mine isn't, but it centered perfectly. As I recall, there is no provision for centering the mount. The two mounts that connect to the truck attach to the tow hooks/frame, and there are only four holes for the winch to mount to the mount, and two holes to mount the fairlead to the plate. Maybe it would help if you posted a picture, I have no idea why yours would be off-center. Mine is straight as an arrow (pics in my profile).
